Summary

Cleveland Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Fayetteville, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 403 students. The school is part of the Fayette County School District, which is ranked 10th out of 206 districts in Georgia and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Cleveland Elementary School's academic performance has been mixed compared to the Fayette County and Georgia averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were below the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics for most grade levels. However, the school has shown some improvement in recent years, with proficiency rates increasing in several subject areas. The school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 44.63% to 59.8% in recent years, which may be a contributing factor to its academic performance.

When compared to other nearby elementary schools in the Fayette County district, Cleveland Elementary School generally performs below the top-performing schools, such as Crabapple Lane Elementary, Oak Grove Elementary, and Kedron Elementary. These higher-performing schools have consistently higher proficiency rates on the Milestones Assessment, lower free and reduced-price lunch rates, and lower student-teacher ratios. However, Cleveland Elementary School's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.4 to 10.6 in recent years, may be a strength that could be leveraged to support student learning.
