There were 4,602 white students enrolled in Troup County school in the 2022-23 school year, 3% less than the previous year, according to reports from the Georgia Department of Education.

Data showed that Troup County welcomed 11,540 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, white students comprised 39.9% of the student body to be the second most represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 19 schools in Troup County, Troup County High School recorded the highest enrollment of white students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 663 students.

While enrollment in Georgia inches closer to pre-pandemic levels, chronic absenteeism remains a serious challenge. In 2023, a significant portion of students (23%) missed 10% or more of their classes. Although this is slightly better than the peak of 25% in 2022, it's still nearly double the pre-pandemic rate of 13% recorded in 2019.
