About Treutlen Elementary School

Treutlen Elementary School serves 481 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade in Soperton, Georgia. It earns a composite score of 9.4 out of 10, rated Exceptional, with a standout growth score of 9.9 out of 10 — a direct measure of how much academic progress students make year over year. The numbers place Treutlen among Georgia's elite public schools.

It ranks 13th out of 1,301 elementary schools statewide and 15th out of 2,268 public schools overall, outperforming 99% of Georgia schools.

The academic score of 8.9 out of 10 reflects strong proficiency results, while the near-perfect growth score signals that teachers are consistently moving students forward regardless of where they start. For families in the Soperton area comparing elementary options, Treutlen's statewide rank and sustained growth trajectory make it one of the most compelling public school choices in Georgia.

What Parents Should Know
