PRICE ACADEMY

Price Academy is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Bibb County school district, located in Macon, GA with about 26 students offering grade levels from 5th 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 3 teachers, Price Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. 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 Academy, located at 304 Pierce Ave in Macon, Georgia, is an alternative educational institution within the Bibb County School District. The school is specifically designed to support students who may benefit from a non-traditional learning environment, offering a structured approach to help those who have struggled in standard classroom settings stay on track for graduation. Its mission is centered on providing personalized academic support, behavior intervention, and the necessary resources for students to successfully transition back to their home schools or move toward high school completion.

The academy emphasizes a small-group instructional model that allows for more individualized attention and closer monitoring of student progress. By focusing on both academic recovery and social-emotional development, Price Academy aims to address the unique challenges of its student body. The facility serves as a vital component of the district’s efforts to ensure that all students, regardless of their past educational obstacles, have a viable pathway to earning their diplomas and preparing for future opportunities.
