About Chatham County School District
Chatham County School District serves zip code 31415, covering Savannah, Georgia with grades Pre-K – 12th. Whether you’re researching a move, evaluating a home purchase, or preparing to enroll a child, the sections below give you a complete picture of this district’s resources, size, and what its rating means for your family.
Understanding the 3/10 Rating
With a rating of 3/10 (below average), Chatham County School District ranks among Georgia’s below average-rated school systems. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in Georgia’s Milestones EOG grades 3–8 ELA & Math assessments (2024–25 school year). We average each district’s reading and math proficiency, then rank it against other districts in the same state to produce a 1–10 score. Because Georgia is compared only against itself, the rating reflects how this district performs relative to its in-state peers.
Chatham County School District carries a below-average rating, with reading and math proficiency rates below typical Georgia benchmarks on state assessments. A below-average score reflects test performance relative to other districts — not necessarily teaching quality or school culture, and some of these districts have schools with strong communities and dedicated staff. Families should research specific school quality, visit in person, and ask about available programs. Also ask about open enrollment and magnet options that may offer alternatives to the default attendance-zone assignment.
