Following the College Board and Georgia Department of Education release of SAT Scores, the Richmond County School System shared highlights of its Class of 2022 SAT Score reports.

Class of 2022 test takers earned higher SAT mean scores than pre-pandemic test takers continuing the trend of overall growth in SAT performance.
The number of SAT test takers increased compared to 2021.
“Congratulations to the Richmond County School System Class of 2022 for achievement growth over 2020 pre-pandemic SAT test takers,” said Dr. Kenneth Bradshaw, Superintendent of Schools. “Though there was a slight decrease from 2021, this year more of our students showed up to take the SAT, applied the knowledge they are learning in the classroom, and prepared for opportunities to continue their success after graduation.”

Several Richmond County Schools reported notable test results.

A.R. Johnson and Davidson Fine Arts School students scored above the state and national average in SAT Evidence-Based Reading and SAT Math.
Davidson Fine Arts School students scored in the Top 5% of the State at 16th of 393 schools.
