Greenbrier High School reported 77 Asian students enrolled for the 2024-25 school year, a 2.7% rise compared with the prior year, according to the Georgia Department of Education.

Total student enrollment at Greenbrier High School reached 1,929 in the 2024-25 school year. Asian students constituted 4% of the population, making up the school’s smallest demographic group.

Greenbrier High School is part of Columbia County Public Schools, which is centrally administered in Evans.

The National Center for Education Statistics reports the racial and ethnic breakdown of Georgia public school students as about 36.4% Black, 35.9% white, 18.1% Hispanic, 4% Asian, 4.6% multiracial, 0.2% American Indian or Alaska Native and 0.1% Pacific Islander.

Chronic absenteeism continues to affect Georgia schools after the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, according to the Georgia Department of Education. To address the issue, GaDOE created a statewide initiative featuring a real-time attendance dashboard, a public awareness campaign, and specific assistance for high-need districts to improve daily attendance.

Georgia legislators approved a bill in 2025 that revises school attendance laws to prevent expulsion solely for absenteeism. The legislation also implements new reporting standards and supports alternative diploma pathways for students.

By 2026, Georgia averaged a student-to-teacher ratio of roughly 14:1, outperforming the national average of 15:1.
