Summary

Wynbrooke Elementary School in Stone Mountain, GA, serves 546 students in Pre-K through 5th grade within the DeKalb County School District, and it stands out as a high-performing option in an area where many nearby schools struggle significantly.

Despite 84.4% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, Wynbrooke consistently outperforms both its district and state averages in math. In 2025-2026, 3rd grade math proficiency reached 52.8% compared to the DeKalb County average of 35.9%, and 5th grade math hit 56.7% versus the state average of 44.1%. This academic success is even more striking when compared to neighboring DeKalb schools like Shadow Rock Elementary School, Rock Chapel Elementary School, and Redan Elementary School, which all rank in the bottom 6% of Georgia schools and post math proficiency rates of just 10-32%. Wynbrooke's math scores are roughly 2-3 times higher than these peers, despite serving a student population with only modestly different economic characteristics. The school also ranks in the 90th percentile statewide for African American student outcomes, placing it in the top 10% of Georgia elementary schools for serving this population.

One of Wynbrooke's most impressive metrics is its chronic absenteeism rate of just 7.6%—dramatically lower than the DeKalb County average of 26.7% and the state average of 17.7%. This strong attendance likely contributes to the school's consistent performance, which has oscillated between the 68th and 78th percentiles statewide over the past five years. While math is a clear strength, 5th grade science proficiency (36.7%) lags behind the state average (44.2%), suggesting an area for potential improvement. Historical English Language Arts data from 2024-2025 shows Wynbrooke outperforming district and state averages by significant margins across all grade levels. With per-student spending of $19,068—comparable to its DeKalb peers but higher than Gwinnett County schools like Mountain Park Elementary School and Anderson-Livsey Elementary School—Wynbrooke achieves significantly better outcomes with similar resources, making it a compelling case study in educational effectiveness that defies demographic predictions.

Open Quote Extremely disappointed. This school has no leadership and an abundance of apathy. When you drive up to the school you can see that the building and grounds have not been maintained appropriately. The hallways are dirty. The cafeteria needs new chairs. The teachers have no dress code - t-shirts, tights and flip flops are not ok (especially when the children are in uniforms. Everyone should have some sort of uniform which means no suggestive clothing whatsoever (no tight shirts and short skirts). Also... there are not many extracurricular programs for the kids. The school website is not informative nor is it up-to-date. Parents fight to get the one good teacher that they have in each grade. Not what you would expect for a theme school. Not even sure what the theme is and I have inquired for two years now. I have no idea why the rating is still so high. I hate to pay for private school but sometimes you get what you pay for. In this case, I paid nothing and my child got nothing from being there. Fortunately, I continue to work with my child at home but I wish the 5+ hours she spent at school also deemed beneficial.
