Evans Middle School enrolled 44 multiracial students for the 2024-25 academic year, reflecting a 6.4% decrease from the prior year, according to reports from the Georgia Department of Education.
The data indicate that Evans Middle School’s total enrollment reached 735 students in 2024-25, with multiracial students representing 6% of the overall student population—ranking as the second-smallest demographic at the school.
Situated within the Coweta County School District, Evans Middle School’s central administration is based in Newnan.
Out of all 29 schools in the Coweta County School District, East Coweta High School had the largest number of multiracial students enrolled in the 2024-25 term, totaling 145 students.
The National Center for Education Statistics reports that Georgia’s public school student body was comprised of around 36.4% Black, 35.9% white, 18.1% Hispanic, 4% Asian, 4.6% multiracial, 0.2% American Indian or Alaska Native, and 0.1% Pacific Islander students.
Chronic absenteeism has continued to be a pressing concern for Georgia schools since the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing 10% or more instructional days in 2024, based on data from the Georgia Department of Education. GaDOE initiated state-level interventions, including a real-time attendance dashboard, a public awareness campaign, and additional support for high-need districts to improve attendance rates.
In 2025, Georgia legislators enacted a law revising school attendance policy, prohibiting expulsion based solely on absenteeism. The new statute also brings additional reporting requirements and supports pathways that aid students in attaining diplomas through alternative means.
As of 2026, Georgia’s average student-to-teacher ratio was about 14:1, outperforming the national average ratio of 15:1.
