Two Hall County schools and two from Gainesville City were recently identified by the state department of education as either Priority or Focus schools — designations that track learning facilities exhibiting the need for additional support. Woods Mill Academy of the Gainesville City School System fell into the Priority School category, which according to the Georgia Department of Education, means it is among the lowest 5 percent of Title I schools in terms of academic achievement. Focus schools included Centennial Arts Academy — also a Gainesville City School — and Lyman Hall and White Sulphur elementary schools from the Hall County district.
