At the September Carrollton City Schools Board of Education meeting, the board and district recognized the 2024-2025 Milestone Masters, a group of students who earned perfect scores on one or more sections of the Georgia Milestones Assessment, Georgia’s standardized test, which measures how well students understand what they learned in key subject areas.
These students’ achievements reflect their hard work and dedication to mastering subjects, including Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and English Language Arts.
The Georgia Milestones Assessments evaluate how well students have grasped key concepts and skills outlined in state standards. Achieving a perfect score on these assessments is a significant accomplishment and a testament to each student’s perseverance and academic ability.
In fifth grade, Copeland Ozier achieved perfect scores in math. Sixth graders Simon Hawig, Liberty Doublet, Hunter Chen, Lily Lovvorn and Bryson Hummer also excelled in math, while Sienna Barnwell achieved a perfect score in language arts. In seventh grade, Gavin Cunningham stood out with a perfect score in math. Among eighth graders, Parker O’Neal and Jaden Amaya-Reyes excelled in math, along with Ellis Esslinger who earned a perfect score in math and high school physical science. Grey Jackson set the standard for eighth-grade language arts. High school students Lucy Slappey and Wilson Mills achieved perfect scores in biology, and Juliet Browning shined in U.S. history.
This is the second consecutive year that Hunter Chen, Lily Lovvorn, Bryson Hummer, Gavin Cunningham, and Lucy Slappey have been recognized as Milestone Masters.
