Fulton County Schools officials say it’s too early to know why the 2025 SAT score averages at North Springs High School dropped 54 points in a year when the district’s overall average score rose.

Chief Academic Officer Brannon Gaskins told the Fulton County Board of Education during its Oct. 7 work session that the district’s average SAT score for 2025 was 1,076. That was a 13-point gain compared to last year.
