Summary

Alpharetta Elementary School is a PK-5 public school in Alpharetta, GA, serving 498 students within the Fulton County school district, and it has consistently ranked among the top 5% of elementary schools in Georgia for over a decade.

Academically, Alpharetta Elementary is a standout. In the most recent testing data, math proficiency rates ranged from 77.4% in 3rd grade to 83.5% in 5th grade—roughly 15 to 27 percentage points above the district average and nearly double the state average in some grades. Fifth-grade science proficiency hit 80.9%, exceeding the state average by nearly 37 points. The school also earns 5-star ratings across all reported student subgroups, showing strong results for both boys and girls. While English Language Arts scores are not yet available for this release, the school's prior-year performance in that subject was also well above average. This academic strength is supported by a low student-teacher ratio of 10.9:1 and a per-student investment of $21,169, which is higher than many nearby schools but appears to yield strong results.

Attendance is another major advantage. Alpharetta Elementary's chronic absenteeism rate has dropped from 12.0% in 2021-2022 to just 7.8% today—less than half the district rate of 16.6% and well below the state average. This mirrors the pattern seen at other top-performing neighbors like Crabapple Crossing Elementary School (1.8%) and Creek View Elementary School (2.1%). Interestingly, just 2.5 miles away, Mimosa Elementary School ranks in the 26th percentile despite similar spending, highlighting that Alpharetta Elementary's success comes from more than just resources. For parents, this school offers a stable, well-supported environment where high attendance and strong teaching combine to produce consistently excellent outcomes.

I am new to Alpharetta, and my son is new to this school. He goes to Grade 4 here. The teachers and the staff are lovely. However, there's bullying, use of foul language, and bad behavior by students in this school. When things are brought to the notice of the staff, it is addressed, but as no disciplinary action is taken, things do not change or stop. My son just spent close to 3 months here and has faced bullying and racism. Seeing how some students can go unpunished despite doing bad things is disappointing as a parent. Some grade 4/ 5 students are mannerless and fearless and engage in bullying that's poisonous for the school and other good kids. I hope staff can look into such incidents more seriously and take strict action. Close Quote

Excellent school for all types of students. Great leadership, wonderful teachers, & extraordinary children make the perfect setting for learning. My child did not LOVE school until he started there. Now he’s a very proud AES Eagle! ❤️ Close Quote

My child is in first grade at AES and has an absolutely wonderful teacher, Ms. Mooney. She is patient and focused on making sure all students achieve their best. The administration also includes a new principal and assistant principal who bring a renewed sense of accountability and transparency by actively engaging teachers and parents. I am also involved in the school and PTO, and, although there are parents who have deeper experience at AES, there are also new parents looking to connect. I am sorry for the other reviewer who does not feel a sense of community within the school and the parents and hope they reconsider trying again. Close Quote

The school culture/spirit at this school is horrible. I’ve volunteered on numerous occasions and have noticed that the PTO members operate like a clique. They have already formed their groups and do not allow anyone else in. So from my experience they rarely make me feel welcomed as a parent because I am not a member of their “cult.” Overall, the school principal staff and teachers thus far are great and my child does well academically but the PTO and school governance parent representative should lead a better example.
