Summary

Unidos Dual Language School is an elementary school (PK–5) in Forest Park, GA, serving 394 students within the Clayton County district, where it has become a standout success story in a district that overall ranks in the bottom 20% of Georgia school systems.

Unidos has posted one of the most dramatic improvement arcs in the state, climbing from the bottom 15% of Georgia elementary schools a decade ago to the top third today (67th percentile, 3 stars). The most striking result is in 4th grade math, where 87.8% of students met proficiency—nearly three times the district average (31.4%) and well above the state average (50.1%). For comparison, the nearest peer, Fountain Elementary, posted just 26.8% in the same subject. The school also ranks in the 78th percentile statewide for its effectiveness with Hispanic students, and it maintains balanced outcomes across genders. While current-year ELA scores are not yet available, historical data shows strong gains, particularly in 4th grade, where proficiency jumped from 22.4% to 50.9% in one year.

What truly sets Unidos apart is its school culture. Chronic absenteeism sits at just 9.6%, compared to 28% district-wide and 38.9% at nearby Edmonds Elementary. This is especially notable given that 100% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. The school also operates with a favorable 11.2:1 student-teacher ratio and spends about $18,672 per student—less than some Atlanta schools that achieve far worse results. While neighboring schools like Haynie Elementary (13th percentile) and Huie Elementary (6th percentile) struggle, Unidos demonstrates that high achievement is possible within the district's constraints. Its dual-language model, combined with strong attendance and effective resource use, offers a blueprint worth watching.

The school has been a huge disappointment. The academic needs of "certain" students are met, but for many they are not. Some students are allowed to transfer to better academic settings, while others are denied. And there seems to be no reason why some get their wishes and others do not, except the likeability of the kid to the principal. Not right. Unfair. I know that there are a little more than 100 kindergarteners, but the numbers fall drastically. Why? Leadership and a failure to meet the needs of all students is why. Close Quote
