PRICE MIDDLE SCHOOL

Price Middle School is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Atlanta Public Schools school district, located in Atlanta, GA with about 326 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 26 teachers, Price Middle School has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Price Middle School, located in the Lakewood Heights neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia, is a public middle school serving students in grades 6 through 8. As part of the Atlanta Public Schools (APS) system, the school is deeply rooted in the local community and is situated within the Carver Cluster, often working in conjunction with nearby schools to provide a continuous educational pathway for students in the area. The school facility itself is modern, having undergone significant reconstruction in recent years to provide students with updated learning environments, technology, and extracurricular spaces designed to support both academic and personal growth.

Academically, Price Middle School focuses on preparing students for the transition to high school by emphasizing core subjects such as English language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies. Beyond the classroom, the school typically provides various opportunities for student engagement, including athletic programs, arts initiatives, and after-school clubs aimed at fostering character development and community involvement. While the school operates within a district that frequently navigates the challenges of urban education, Price Middle School remains a focal point for neighborhood identity and continues to strive toward enhancing student achievement and long-term educational outcomes for the families of Southeast Atlanta.
