Summary

Lambert High School in Suwanee, GA, is a large public high school serving 3,249 students in grades 9-12 within the Forsyth County School District, and it consistently ranks among Georgia's top schools—currently 10th out of 455 high schools statewide with a 5-star rating.

Lambert's academic performance is its standout feature. In the most recent testing, the school posted proficiency rates of 74.9% in Algebra I, 85.5% in Biology, and 66.1% in U.S. History—all dramatically above state averages. The Biology score is particularly impressive, nearly double the state average and about 11 points higher than the district average. For context, Lambert outperforms nearby Duluth High School by 36.6 percentage points and Peachtree Ridge High School by 30.4 points in Biology. The school also excels in serving all student groups, ranking 5th in the state for Special Education students, 7th for African American students, and 11th for Hispanic students. Its graduation rate of 98.2% exceeds the state average by 11 points, and chronic absenteeism has dropped dramatically from 17.2% in 2021-2022 to just 6.2% now—less than a third of the state rate.

What makes Lambert particularly noteworthy is its efficiency and consistency. The school spends about $10,344 per student—significantly less than nearby Johns Creek High School ($14,813), Alpharetta High School ($14,762), and Chattahoochee High School ($15,135)—while achieving better outcomes. Lambert has never ranked lower than 17th in the state over the past decade, and its graduation rate has stayed above 97.9% for five straight years. While Algebra I remains its relative weak spot (a dip to 53% in 2022-2023 has since recovered), the school's decade-long track record of top-tier performance, even at a large scale with a 19.4:1 student-teacher ratio, suggests deeply embedded systems of success that families can count on.

Most of the teachers I know care more about academics than anything else. When I moved here, there were kids in inappropriate clothing and the teachers did not seem to care all that much. Also, the amount of students who use drugs are far higher than my old school's. One student I know have been picked on the entire year, and the teacher did not do anything about it even though she witnessed the scene. The victim finally stood up for herself, and do you know what happened? She got 3 days of suspension, but the bully was not punished. What does this tell you? Close Quote

Excellent school with many opportunities for student's academic and social growth and many caring professional teachers and staff members to guide them along. Close Quote
