Georgia’s public school system enrolled more than 1.7 million students, as indicated in the Georgia Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 report.

The issue of chronic absenteeism continues to impact Georgia schools after the pandemic. In 2024, 20.7% of students missed at least 10% of school days, as recorded by the Georgia Department of Education. To address this, the state education department launched initiatives such as an attendance dashboard, a campaign for public awareness, and focused supports for districts in need.
Looking ahead to 2025, new legislation in Georgia updated school attendance requirements, ending expulsions based solely on absenteeism. The law includes new data reporting measures and connects with programs that offer alternative diploma pathways.
As of 2026, Georgia’s student-teacher ratio stood at about 14:1, surpassing the national average of 15:1.
