Skyview Elementary School enrolls 161 white students for 2024-25 term

For the 2024-25 term, Skyview Elementary School enrolled 161 white students, a 6.4% decrease from the prior year, according to the Georgia Department of Education.

Total student enrollment at Skyview Elementary School reached 376 for 2024-25, with white students accounting for 43% of the student body—the school’s largest demographic group.

The campus operates under the Bibb County School District, which has its main office in Macon.

Rutland High School had the highest number of white students—211—among the 34 schools in the Bibb County School District for the 2024-25 term.

Public school enrollment across Georgia exceeded 1.7 million students, per the Georgia Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 data. Elementary grades represented the highest share at 787,206 students (45.9%), while middle school had 388,733 (22.7%) and high school accounted for 539,092 (31.4%).

As noted by the Georgia Department of Education, chronic absenteeism continues to challenge state schools in the aftermath of the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing 10% or more school days in 2024. In response, GaDOE introduced statewide initiatives including a dashboard for real-time attendance, outreach campaigns, and targeted assistance for districts with high needs to address daily attendance rates.

In 2025, a bill passed by Georgia legislators revised attendance statutes, prohibiting expulsions solely for absenteeism. The updated legislation also introduced additional reporting requirements and coordinates with alternative diploma programs for students.

By 2026, Georgia’s student-to-teacher ratio averaged around 14:1, remaining below the nationwide ratio of 15:1.
