Summary

Brockett Elementary School in Tucker, GA, serves approximately 394 students in grades PK through 5 as part of the DeKalb County School District, and it has earned a 2-star rating with a statewide rank of 778th out of 1,219 elementary schools.

One of the most impressive things about Brockett is its 4th grade math program. In the most recent school year, 54.4% of 4th graders scored proficient or above in math—well above the district average of 37.5% and even higher than the state average of 50.1%. This isn't a one-time fluke; the school has shown steady improvement in this area for three straight years. However, this strength doesn't carry over to every grade or subject. For example, 5th grade math proficiency sits at 31.4%, and 5th grade science (25.4%) trails the state average of 44.2%. The school also does particularly well for its African American students, ranking in the 65th percentile statewide for that subgroup—a much stronger result than its overall ranking.

Brockett also stands out for its students' attendance. The chronic absenteeism rate is just 15.8%, which is dramatically better than the district average of 26.7% and even better than the state average of 17.7%. This is especially notable given that nearly 92% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. In comparison, nearby Idlewood Elementary School has a 23.2% chronic absenteeism rate, and Hambrick Elementary School is at 31.6%. Brockett also maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 10.3:1, giving students more individual attention. While the school spends a relatively high $22,181 per student, the combination of strong 4th grade math, good attendance, and small class sizes suggests that money is being put toward areas that help kids show up and succeed.
