Summary

Allatoona Elementary School in Acworth, GA, serves approximately 413 students in grades PK-5 within the Bartow County School District, and has shown a remarkable upward trajectory in recent years, climbing from the 35th percentile statewide in 2020-2021 to the 57th percentile in 2025-2026.

One of the most striking things about Allatoona is its success with its Hispanic students, who rank in the 76th percentile statewide—well above the school's overall ranking. The school also posted a 5th-grade science proficiency rate of 48.4% in the most recent testing year, dramatically outperforming nearby Emerson Elementary (15.2%) and Pitner Elementary (34.8%), and exceeding both the district (41.3%) and state (44.2%) averages. This represents a 15.6 percentage point improvement from the prior year, suggesting a targeted and effective focus on science instruction. Allatoona has also made significant strides in reducing chronic absenteeism, dropping from 30.2% in 2021-2022 to just 12.9% in 2025-2026—lower than both the district (15.8%) and state (17.7%) averages, despite serving a higher-poverty population (84.5% free/reduced lunch) than most nearby schools.

Interestingly, Allatoona achieves these results while spending less per student ($16,900) than several comparable schools, including Baker Elementary ($18,468) and Acworth Elementary ($20,313). The contrast with Emerson Elementary is particularly notable: despite Emerson having a lower poverty rate, a better student-teacher ratio, and significantly higher spending, Emerson ranks in the 27th percentile statewide compared to Allatoona's 57th. While Allatoona's overall performance is strong, there are areas for growth—its White student population ranks in just the 25th percentile, and female students (52nd percentile) trail their male peers (61st percentile). Still, the school's ability to improve outcomes while serving an increasingly disadvantaged population is a notable achievement, suggesting that school-level factors like instructional quality and leadership are making a real difference for students.
