Annual Reports of the Department of Education to the General Assembly of the State of Georgia - renamed Report on Georgia Schools in 1956 - ran a litany of statistics on public education in the state. Despite the name "Annual Reports," the books were issued every two years by the 1930s.
Included in these stats are two major ones that help give a picture of Black schools where other statewide sources do not: The amount of African American schools in each school system, and the amount of one-teacher schools in each system.
There were not without flaws, either. The Annual Reports were inconsistent with properly labeling city school systems. Before the 1950s, these were much more numerous. Cordele and Vienna, for example, were among the individual city systems that closed during the 1950s. Numbers were submitted by each school system, always with the chance of errors.
The table presented here covers both numbers - total schools and one-teacher schools - nearly every two years from 1932 to 1956. No statistics were printed in 1946 and 1948.
Stats are for the end of the school year. For example, 1950, refers to 1949-50.
