Summary

Allgood Elementary School in Stone Mountain, GA, serves approximately 614 students in grades PK-5 as part of the DeKalb County School District, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Allgood stands out among its neighbors for a remarkable upward trend. The school has climbed from the 14th percentile statewide in 2020-2021 to the 37th percentile for 2025-2026, making it the highest-ranked among eight nearby non-theme elementary schools—a group that includes Woodridge Elementary School (9th percentile), Dunaire Elementary School (9th percentile), and Jolly Elementary School (4th percentile). The most striking strength is in 5th grade: 41.8% of Allgood 5th graders are proficient in both math and science, far exceeding the district averages (31.7% math, 30.4% science) and more than doubling the proficiency rates at schools like Indian Creek Elementary School (20.3% math, 23.3% science) and Rockbridge Elementary School (24.6% math, 13.8% science). Only Robert Shaw Theme School, a magnet school with a different admissions process, outperforms Allgood in science.

What makes this even more notable is the school's grade-level trajectory: math proficiency rises from 22.4% in 3rd grade to 34.1% in 4th grade and 41.8% in 5th grade—a nearly 20-point gain that suggests students who stay at Allgood see compounding benefits. This is the opposite of trends at nearby schools like Woodridge, where proficiency drops from 44.5% in 3rd grade to 15.3% in 5th grade. Allgood also shows strong results for African American students (52nd percentile statewide) and English Language Learners (59th percentile). The school has invested heavily in staffing, improving its student-teacher ratio from 18.1 to 11.8 and increasing per-student spending by 42% since 2022-2023. Chronic absenteeism (28.5%) remains above the state average but is stable and lower than several peers, including Rowland Elementary School (32.7%) and Hambrick Elementary School (31.6%). While 3rd grade math still lags the district, Allgood's consistent improvement and upper-grade success make it a school to watch.

Open Quote This a great school! Teachers are concerned about the students. The principal, Ms. Price, and assistant principal, Mr. Jackson, are always available. My son started in the 2nd grade after coming from private school. I would recommend this school to other parents. Very supportive parents and teachers! Close Quote
