LUES & LPS have been named Title I Distinguished by the Georgia Department of Education. This prestigious designation highlights them as one of the top-performing Title I schools in Georgia, placing it among the highest-performing 5% statewide.
The distinction is based on the exceptional academics combined with the English Language Arts (ELA) and Math content mastery scores from the most recent Georgia Milestones assessments. The outstanding performance of Lyons Upper Elementary 3rd-grade students in the spring 2024 assessments contributed to this significant achievement.
The recognition comes as part of the Georgia Department of Education’s annual release of the Distinguished and Reward Schools lists, under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). Distinguished Schools exemplify the best practices in teaching and learning, setting a benchmark for other schools across the state.
