Summary

Mountain Road Elementary School is a public elementary school in Woodstock, Georgia, serving 372 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Cherokee County School District. This high-performing school consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic assessments, ranking in the top 15% of Georgia elementary schools.

Mountain Road Elementary's academic excellence is evident in its strong performance on the Milestones Assessments. In the 2024-2025 school year, 66.7% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 53.1% in Cherokee County and 43% statewide. The school's student-teacher ratio is also relatively low, ranging from 12.2 to 13.2 over the past few years, which may contribute to its success. Additionally, the school has seen a steady increase in per-student spending, indicating a commitment to investing in educational resources and programs.

While Mountain Road Elementary outperforms nearby schools in Cherokee County, it is interesting to note the strong academic performance of some schools in the Fulton County district, such as Mountain Park Elementary and Crabapple Crossing Elementary, which have even higher academic achievement and statewide rankings. This suggests that Mountain Road Elementary could potentially serve as a model or resource for other schools in the region, sharing best practices and strategies to help improve educational outcomes across the area.

MRES has the feel of a small private school. This is based on the very active engagement of parents. Routinely, you will find numerous parents walking the halls or working in classrooms. If you are looking for a private school feel at a public school, MRES is for you. Close Quote
