About Stephens County Schools
Stephens County Schools counted 3,708 K–12 students in a grade-banded elementary structure that changes campuses almost every two years. Big A Elementary carries prekindergarten and kindergarten, Liberty Elementary serves grades one and two, Toccoa Elementary covers grades three and four, and the Fifth Grade Academy gathers the entire fifth-grade class before students enter Stephens County Middle and Stephens County High.
The word “Academy” in this sequence has a precise local meaning. Every fifth-grader in the regular county route is assigned to Fifth Grade Academy. It functions as a one-year bridge between the three early-elementary buildings and the grades 6–8 middle school.
Stephens organizes the elementary years mainly by age, with a short stay at each countywide building. Siblings only a few grades apart may attend different campuses, and most children experience four schools before high school. A transferring family needs the child’s exact grade first; a general reference to the nearest elementary school can point to the wrong placement in this unusually segmented ladder.
