Summary

Crabapple Lane Elementary School in Peachtree City, GA, serves 594 students in Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the Fayette County School District, earning a 5-star rating and ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide for 2025-2026.

Crabapple Lane stands out most for its exceptional science program. In 2025-2026, 80.8% of 5th graders scored proficient on the state science assessment—a remarkable 36.6 percentage points above the state average and 12.4 points above the district. This is a signature strength that outpaces several nearby schools with higher overall rankings, including Braelinn Elementary School (71.2%) and Oak Grove Elementary School (75%). The school also shows strong math performance across all grade levels, with 5th grade math proficiency at 75.7%—31.6 points above the state average. This represents a dramatic turnaround from 2022-2023, when only 48.4% of 5th graders were proficient in math; the school has since improved by 27.3 percentage points over three years.

What truly differentiates Crabapple Lane is its effectiveness with all students. The school ranks in the 96th percentile for African American students and 94th percentile for Hispanic students—both higher than its overall 92nd percentile ranking—demonstrating a strong track record of closing achievement gaps. The school also maintains remarkably low chronic absenteeism at 6.6%, less than half the district average (11.0%) and dramatically below the state average (17.7%). This strong attendance culture likely supports academic success. Crabapple Lane achieves these results efficiently, spending $15,254 per student—27% less than Cleveland Elementary School, which ranks 481st statewide. While nearby Kedron Elementary School (98th percentile) and Braelinn Elementary (97th percentile) rank slightly higher overall, Crabapple Lane's science excellence, subgroup performance, and upward trajectory—improving from 116th to 93rd statewide in two years—make it a standout choice in a highly competitive area.
