Funding

How Georgia funds schools

Georgia funds schools through the Quality Basic Education (QBE) formula: a base per-student amount multiplied by program weights for categories such as kindergarten, early intervention, special education and gifted, so funding follows the program a student is in rather than a flat per-pupil grant. QBE still has no permanent poverty or “opportunity” weight; proposals to add one were debated in 2025 but not enacted.

District-level per-pupil spending and the local/state/federal revenue split for Coweta County School District are published in the federal school-finance files — see the full-data links below for the current figures.

Accountability

Report card & state results

Georgia rates schools and districts on the College and Career Ready Performance Index (CCRPI), scoring content mastery, progress, closing gaps, readiness and (for high schools) graduation rate. Look up Coweta County School District on the state’s School Grades report.

Accreditation

Accreditation status

Most Georgia districts are accredited through Cognia (the former SACS CASI); districts still commonly refer to “SACS” accreditation, now administered by Cognia. Look up Coweta County School District in the free Cognia registry.
