Summary

Mabry Middle School in Marietta, GA, serves 938 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Cobb County School District, and it consistently ranks among Georgia's top middle schools—currently 35th out of 578 schools statewide (94th percentile).

Mabry's standout strength is mathematics. In the most recent school year, 100% of 8th graders taking the Algebra I End of Course exam scored proficient or better—a perfect score that far exceeds the district average of 59.4% and the state average of 48.1%. This isn't a one-year fluke; Mabry has hit 100% proficiency in Algebra I for three of the past four years. Grade-level math scores are also strong, with 8th grade math proficiency at 81.3%—nearly double the state average and 26 points above the district. The school also boasts a remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of 7.5%, less than half the district rate (14.2%) and state rate (17.7%), which suggests a positive, engaging school climate. Mabry performs well across student subgroups, ranking in the 95th percentile for African American students and 94th percentile for Hispanic students.

Compared to nearby schools, Mabry holds its own but faces stiff competition. Dodgen Middle School (ranked 7th) and Hightower Trail Middle School (ranked 11th) edge out Mabry in 8th grade math, but Mabry still beats E.T. Booth Middle School (48% vs. 66.2% in 6th grade math) and Mill Creek Middle School (56.8% vs. 66.2%). The starkest contrast is with Palmer Middle School, just 5.66 miles away, where 6th grade math proficiency is 28.7% versus Mabry's 66.2%. Mabry also achieves these results efficiently—spending $14,222 per student, while McCleskey Middle School spends $18,163 yet ranks far lower. One area to watch: 8th grade science proficiency has declined from 58% to 48.5% over three years, though it still outpaces district and state averages.
