Summary

Huddleston Elementary School in Peachtree City, GA, serves approximately 616 students in grades PK-5 and is part of the highly regarded Fayette County district, which ranks in the 94th percentile statewide.

Huddleston is a solid, improving school with a 4-star rating and a statewide rank of 132nd out of 1,219 Georgia elementary schools (89th percentile). After a mid-pandemic dip, the school has climbed steadily over the past two years, approaching its pre-pandemic peak. One of its standout strengths is early-grade math: 73% of 3rd graders and 79.6% of 4th graders are proficient, well above district and state averages. However, 5th grade math tells a different story—only 59.8% are proficient, a nearly 20-point drop from 4th grade and the only grade where the school falls below the district average. This pattern is unusual among nearby schools; for example, Crabapple Lane Elementary actually improves in 5th grade math (75.7%), and Braelinn Elementary reaches 84.5%. Since 5th grade science also trails the district, this appears to be a grade-level challenge rather than a subject-specific one—and it may be cohort-related, as 5th grade math was actually the school's strongest subject the prior year.

On the positive side, Huddleston has cut chronic absenteeism nearly in half over five years, from 15.4% to 8.9%—well below the state average of 17.7%. The school also shows notable effectiveness with Hispanic students, who rank in the 89th percentile statewide. Financially, Huddleston spends $13,948 per student, roughly $1,500–$5,500 less than most nearby schools like Cleveland Elementary ($19,408) and Oak Grove Elementary ($19,095), yet still achieves competitive results. With a more economically diverse student body (33% free/reduced lunch) than many Peachtree City peers, Huddleston delivers strong value. While it trails 5-star neighbors like Kedron Elementary and Peeples Elementary, its upward trajectory and efficient use of resources make it a compelling choice for families.

What people are saying
by a parent
Wednesday, July 31, 2024

Open Quote Avoid this school. It’s not nurturing since the new Principal arrived, it’s declined significantly. Bullying is rampant, and communication is poor among teachers, the principal, and parents. While some teachers are great, at least three of my child’s teachers were terrible at communication and sometimes rude. Teachers manage about 20 students per class and seem too busy to listen or address individual needs properly. Their communication with parents is often unclear, rude, or dry, leading to misunderstandings. Policies are fear-based rather than supportive, neglecting real-life skills, conflict resolution, and mental health. There’s a lack of focus on nurturing self-discipline and respect. The school’s environment fosters anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem, with no celebration of diversity. Kids are pressured by test scores and ratings, worsening their stress and undermining trust. The school needs a more competent team and better time management to support special needs students effectively. Close Quote
