Summary

Woodson Park Academy School is a PK-8 school in Atlanta, GA, serving 842 students within the Atlanta Public Schools district, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Woodson Park Academy is a school on a clear upward trajectory. Over the past several years, its statewide ranking has climbed from the 1st percentile to the 24th percentile—a steady, consistent improvement that reflects real gains in the classroom. The most striking progress is in mathematics. In 4th grade, math proficiency nearly doubled in a single year, jumping from 19.1% to 38.2%, which now approaches the district average. Fifth-grade math also rose sharply, from 12.3% to 20.3%, and science proficiency in 5th grade improved from 21% to 38.2%. Another major success story is chronic absenteeism, which has fallen dramatically from 58.4% to 29.4% over four years—closing the gap with the district average to just a couple of points. The school also shows particular strength with its African American students, who rank in the 42nd percentile statewide, notably higher than the school's overall ranking.

Compared to nearby schools, Woodson Park stands out for its resource efficiency and momentum. It outperforms Michael R. Hollis Innovation Academy in nearly every subject and grade level, despite spending less per student ($26,586 vs. $35,088). Meanwhile, Westside Atlanta Charter School posts higher test scores, but serves a very different population, with only about half its students qualifying for free/reduced lunch. The 8th grade remains a challenge, with math proficiency at just 12.7%, signaling a need for continued focus on preparing students for high school. Still, with consistent gains across most grades and subjects, Woodson Park Academy is demonstrating that significant improvement is possible, even while serving a high-poverty student body.
