In the 2024-25 school year, McClure Middle School counted 62 Asian students enrolled, a 3.3% increase from the prior year, according to information from the Georgia Department of Education.
Totals indicated the school had 1,036 students in 2024-25. Asian students represented 6% of the student population, placing them among the school’s smaller demographic groups.
The campus operates within the Cobb County School District, which is administered from headquarters in Marietta.
Among Cobb County School District’s 110 schools, Walton High School reported the largest enrollment of Asian students for the 2024-25 period, with 646 students.
Statewide, public school enrollment in Georgia exceeded 1.7 million students, according to the Georgia Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 data. Of these, elementary schools enrolled 787,206 students (45.9%), middle schools had 388,733 students (22.7%), and high schools totaled 539,092 students (31.4%).
The Georgia Department of Education found 20.7% of students were chronically absent—missing 10% or more school days—in 2024. To address this, GaDOE began a statewide campaign, creating a live attendance dashboard, conducting public awareness efforts and providing targeted help for school districts with the highest needs to improve attendance numbers.
In 2025, state lawmakers approved a bill changing school attendance rules to prohibit expelling students solely for absenteeism and require additional reporting. The measure also supports diploma-earning programs with alternative path options for students.
As reported for 2026, Georgia’s average student-to-teacher ratio stood at about 14:1, slightly better than the national ratio of 15:1.
