Summary

Lee Elementary School in College Park, GA, serves 438 students in Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of Fulton County, a district ranked in the top quarter of Georgia school systems. The school has been on a steady upward climb, moving from the 32nd percentile statewide in 2021-2022 to the 63rd percentile in 2025-2026—its best ranking in a decade. This progress is especially notable because 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, yet the school now earns a 3-star rating and sits comfortably in the upper-middle tier of Georgia elementary schools.

One of the most striking improvements is in attendance. Chronic absenteeism has plummeted from 38.4% in 2021-2022 to just 9.9% in 2025-2026—a nearly 75% drop. That rate is now far better than the district average (16.6%) and state average (17.7%), and it beats every nearby school except Bethune Elementary (10.1%). Several neighboring schools struggle with rates above 28%, including Heritage Elementary (28.3%) and Feldwood Elementary (29.2%). Academically, Lee posted strong math results in 2025-2026: 53.7% of 4th graders scored proficient, beating the state average (50.1%), and 5th grade science jumped 15 points to 49.3%, well above the state's 44.2%. The school also made a dramatic leap in 5th grade math, nearly doubling proficiency from 20.9% to 40.6% in one year.

Compared to its peers, Lee ranks first or near-first among seven nearby Fulton County elementary schools with similar demographics. It outperforms Deerwood Academy—an Atlanta Public Schools campus that spends far more per student ($27,559 vs. $19,594) yet ranks in the bottom quarter statewide. While Lee still trails district averages in some subjects, particularly 5th grade math (40.6% vs. 56.5%), its consistent year-over-year gains and strong attendance suggest effective, sustainable strategies. For parents, this is a school that is clearly moving in the right direction, with a proven track record of helping students succeed despite economic challenges.
