Richmond Hill Primary School welcomed the largest number of first grade students among county schools, registering 659 students during the 2022-23 school year.
Within Bryan County schools, the highest student count was found in ninth grade, with the smallest class sizes seen in kindergarten.
Statewide, Bryan County ranked 38th in enrollment numbers, with a total of 19,746 students enrolled in the 2022-23 school year. It was ranked 39th the year before.
While enrollment in Georgia inches closer to pre-pandemic levels, chronic absenteeism remains a serious challenge. In 2023, a significant portion of students (23%) missed 10% or more of their classes. Although this is slightly better than the peak of 25% in 2022, it's still nearly double the pre-pandemic rate of 13% recorded in 2019.
