CCRPI is the Georgia Department of Education’s “comprehensive school improvement, accountability, and communication platform,” according to GaDOE. The single score runs from 0 to 100 and is built from content mastery, progress, closing gaps and readiness, plus graduation rate for high schools. Georgia does not publish an A-to-F letter grade for schools in its 2025 data.
Georgia Milestones end-of-grade tests, 2025, share of tested students at each of the two top levels:

| English language arts | 32.2% | 15% |
| Math | 33% | 20.2% |
| Science (fifth grade) | 34% | 23.8% |
The same data put 47.9% of third graders and 64.5% of fifth graders reading at or above grade level, against 41.7% and 55.1% statewide.
