Boys made up 50.9% of the county's student body, while the other 49.1% were girls.
Data also showed that white students made up 32.7% of the student body, the largest percentage in Cobb County schools, followed by African American students with 30.3%, 26% Hispanic students, 5.5% Asian students, 5% multiracial students and 0.1% American Indian or Alaska Native students.
Campbell High School stood out with the highest enrollment among Cobb County's 124 schools in the 2022-23 cycle, welcoming 2,845 students.
While enrollment in Georgia inches closer to pre-pandemic levels, chronic absenteeism remains a serious challenge. In 2023, a significant portion of students (23%) missed 10% or more of their classes. Although this is slightly better than the peak of 25% in 2022, it's still nearly double the pre-pandemic rate of 13% recorded in 2019.
