Summary

Woodridge Elementary School in Stone Mountain, GA, serves approximately 444 students in grades PK-5 as part of the DeKalb County school district, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has shown a clear upward trajectory, climbing from the 9th percentile statewide in 2023-2024 to the 23rd percentile in 2025-2026—a jump of 197 positions in just two years. Per-pupil spending has also risen steadily to $19,156, and the student-teacher ratio sits at a comfortable 14.8:1.

The most striking bright spot is third-grade math. In 2025-2026, 44.5% of third graders scored proficient—8.6 points above the district average and dramatically higher than nearby schools like Peachcrest Elementary School (11.7%), Snapfinger Elementary School (7.8%), and DeKalb Preparatory Academy Charter (5.1%). This represents a remarkable 17-point single-year gain from 2024-2025, the largest improvement among all nearby schools. However, the picture is uneven: fifth-grade math proficiency (15.3%) and science proficiency (17.3%) lag well behind district and state averages, suggesting the school's recent early-grade interventions haven't yet reached upper grades. Chronic absenteeism has also improved significantly, dropping from 46.1% in 2021-2022 to 27.1% in 2025-2026, now nearly matching the district average.

Compared to its peers, Woodridge sits in the middle tier—outperforming several schools ranked in the bottom 2% statewide, while trailing Allgood Elementary School (37th percentile), which achieves notably higher science scores with a similar student profile. Notably, Woodridge's African American students perform at the 37th percentile statewide, well above the school's overall ranking, indicating particular effectiveness for this group. With rising rankings, surging third-grade math, and declining absenteeism, Woodridge is on a positive trajectory worth watching—especially if its early-grade success can spread to upper grades in the coming years.

Open Quote My child hates this school. They are not teaching these children the basic like they should. This is setting our children up for failure. When your child is having a hard time in school, they,re quick to label them. This isn,t fair at all. I want my child out of this school. She hates this school. Close Quote
