Johnson County Middle School had 119 white students enrolled in the 2024-25 school year, marking an 8.5% decrease from the prior year, according to the Georgia Department of Education.
The total enrollment for the school stood at 222 students for 2024-25, with white students comprising 54% of the student body. This group made up the largest demographic in the school.
The campus is a part of Johnson County School District, headquartered in Wrightsville.
Across the three schools in the district, Johnson County Elementary School reported the highest white student enrollment with 238 for 2024-25.
Georgia’s public schools served over 1.7 million students, according to the Georgia Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 report. Enrollment peaked in elementary grades with 787,206 students (45.9%), followed by 388,733 middle school students (22.7%) and 539,092 high school students (31.4%).
Post-pandemic, chronic absenteeism continues as a significant concern statewide, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, according to the Georgia Department of Education. The Georgia Department of Education began a statewide effort that includes a real-time attendance dashboard, public information campaign, and targeted support for districts with the highest needs to increase daily attendance.
In 2025, state lawmakers approved an update to attendance laws, prohibiting expulsion solely for absenteeism. The changes introduce tighter reporting guidelines and better alignment with alternate paths for students to earn diplomas.
By 2026, Georgia reached an average student-to-teacher ratio of about 14:1, ahead of the national average of 15:1.
