What We Know *- While state-wide the number of babies born to mothers with less than a 12th grade education has remained steady over the last 15 years, Hall County numbers have increased. The percent of Hall County babies born to mothers with less than a 12th grade education is almost double the state percentage. This number varies greatly by race or ethnicity.
