Liberty County High School’s enrollment of white students reached 310 for the 2024-25 school year, marking a 4% rise compared to the prior year, according to figures from the Georgia Department of Education.

Total student enrollment at Liberty County High School stood at 1,151 during the 2024-25 school year. White students comprised 27% of the student population, making them the second-largest demographic group in the school.

The campus belongs to Liberty County School District, whose main office is in Hinesville.

Out of the 12 schools in the Liberty County School District, Liberty County High School posted the highest number of white students enrolled for the 2024-25 school year, totaling 310.

Georgia’s public schools served over 1.7 million students, as reported by the Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 report. The largest enrollment was in elementary grades at 787,206 students (45.9%), followed by 388,733 in middle school (22.7%), and 539,092 students in high school (31.4%).

Chronic absenteeism continues to pose challenges in Georgia schools, with 20.7% of students being absent for 10% or more days in 2024, the Georgia Department of Education reports. In response, the agency launched a statewide initiative featuring a real-time attendance dashboard, public outreach efforts, and focused support for high-need areas to encourage better attendance.

Georgia lawmakers updated school attendance laws in 2025, passing a bill to prevent expulsions based solely on absenteeism. The law also established additional reporting requirements and supports programs that offer alternative diploma routes for students, as detailed here.

As of 2026, the student-to-teacher ratio in Georgia averaged around 14:1, outperforming the national figure of 15:1.
