Public schools in Augusta are run by the Richmond County School System, one district for the whole consolidated city and county, including the separate cities of Hephzibah and Blythe. School zones do not follow neighborhood lines or city limits: parts of south Augusta are zoned for schools with Hephzibah mailing addresses. Check any address in the district’s School Zone and Bus Stop Locator before you buy or rent, or call the central office at 706-826-1000.
The district does not publish a feeder list. Our school pages name the feeder schools from that locator, which we checked at about 1,200 points across the county on Oct. 6, 2026. Each school’s name below links to our page on it, with the principal, the zone, bell times and the next breaks. Scores link to the state’s report card. Tables are in alphabetical order.

What changed for 2026-27
The Board of Education’s 2026 Long-Range Facilities Master Plan changed several schools, according to the district’s plan FAQ and board releases. Jenkins-White, Barton Chapel and Murphey no longer appear in the district’s zone locator:
- Jenkins-White Elementary closed. Its students were split among A. Dorothy Hains, W.S. Hornsby, Lamar-Milledge and Wilkinson Gardens elementary schools.
- Barton Chapel Elementary closed so its building could be replaced. Most of its students attend Glenn Hills Elementary until Chapel Hills Elementary opens on the Barton Chapel site, projected for fall 2028. The board approved a $33.3 million construction bid on April 21, 2026, according to a district release.
- Murphey Middle’s zone was dissolved, and its students were reassigned to Hornsby, Langford-Tutt and Richmond Hill middle schools. T.W. Josey students spend 2026-27 through 2028-29 in the Murphey building while the T.W. Josey High School College and Career Academy is built; after that the Josey zone is to be split among the Academy of Richmond County, Butler and Laney zones.
- Langford-Tutt Middle students move into a renovated building during 2026-27, and the board approved selling the Tutt property to Westminster Schools of Augusta on March 25, 2026, according to a district release.
Merry Elementary and Spirit Creek Middle last appear in the state’s School Grades data for 2024 and are not in the district’s directory.
Specialized programs
The district also runs the Alternative School at Morgan Road, the Performance Learning Center, the Cyber Academy of Excellence inside the Technical Career Magnet building, the Marion E. Barnes Career Center at the Josey campus and Reaching Potential Through Manufacturing on Mike Padgett Highway. Each is listed with its address and phone in the district’s school directory.
Charter school
The Richmond County School System lists no charter schools. The Georgia School for Innovation and the Classics, 5073 Storey Mill Road in Hephzibah, is a tuition-free public charter school chartered by the state, not the district. It serves kindergarten through 12th grade, had 1,026 students and a 2025 CCRPI single score of 64.0 in the state’s School Grades data, and its phone is 706-836-0169. New students apply in February; for 2026-27 the window was Feb. 5-20, followed by an open lottery when there were more applicants than seats, according to the school’s enrollment schedule. Its website is gsiccharter.com.
