Summary

Canongate Elementary School in Sharpsburg, GA, serves 645 students in Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the Coweta County School District, and it has built a reputation as one of the region's most consistent high performers.

Canongate's academic results are strong across the board, with math proficiency rates of 80.8% in 3rd grade, 76.3% in 4th grade, and 67.8% in 5th grade—all well above district and state averages. The school's 5th grade science proficiency of 78.6% is particularly impressive, outpacing the district by 26.5 percentage points. While nearby Arbor Springs Elementary (ranked #48) and Thomas Crossroads Elementary (ranked #88) edge out Canongate in science, Canongate's overall ranking jumped from #201 to #83 this year—the largest single-year improvement among its Coweta peers. The school also stands out for its exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of just 9.9%, roughly half the district average of 19.2%, which likely plays a key role in sustaining academic success.

Canongate achieves these results with notable efficiency, spending about $13,162 per student—44% less than Thomas Crossroads, which spends $18,926, and 31% less than Arbor Springs at $17,240. Even Palmetto Elementary in Fulton County spends $21,962 per student while ranking 577th statewide. The school also shows equitable outcomes across student subgroups, with both male and female students performing at the 93rd percentile. While math proficiency does dip slightly as students move from 3rd to 5th grade—a pattern seen across most schools in the area—Canongate's combination of strong scores, low absenteeism, and smart resource use makes it a top choice for families in this competitive southern metro Atlanta market.
