GEORGIA BAPTIST CHILDREN'S HOME AND FAMILY MINISTRIES

Georgia Baptist Children's Home and Family Ministries is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Fulton County school district, located in Palmetto, GA with about 16 students offering grade levels from 5th Grade to 11th 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 2 teachers, Georgia Baptist Children's Home and Family Ministries 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.

Georgia Baptist Children’s Home and Family Ministries (GBCHFM), located in Palmetto, Georgia, is a faith-based, non-profit organization dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing environment for children and families facing crisis.
