Summary

Medlock Bridge Elementary School in Alpharetta, GA, is a top-rated public school serving 620 students in grades PK through 5 within the Fulton County district, earning a 5-star rating every year for the past decade and ranking 42nd out of 1,219 Georgia elementary schools (97th percentile) in the most recent school year.

Medlock Bridge stands out for its exceptional math and science achievement. In 3rd grade math, 89.1% of students met proficiency standards—a remarkable 40.8 percentage points above the state average—while 5th grade science proficiency reached 79.3%, compared to 44.2% statewide. The school also excels at supporting English Language Learners, ranking 5th out of 214 schools statewide (98th percentile), and shows particularly strong results for male students (97th percentile). One of its most impressive differentiators is chronic absenteeism: only 2.7% of students are chronically absent, versus 17.7% statewide, and this rate has dropped steadily from 9.5% just three years ago. The school invests heavily in its students, spending $18,774 per pupil with a favorable 12.7:1 student-teacher ratio.

Compared to nearby schools, Medlock Bridge holds its own in an exceptionally competitive corridor. It ranks just behind Wilson Creek Elementary (10th statewide) and Abbotts Hill Elementary (15th), but ahead of Ocee Elementary (50th) and Dolvin Elementary (94th). It also outperforms nearby Gwinnett County schools like Chattahoochee Elementary (228th) by 30–40 percentage points in math. While Yi Hwang Academy of Language Excellence exceeds it in 5th grade science (93.8% vs. 79.3%), Medlock Bridge's balanced excellence across subjects, grade levels, and student subgroups makes it a model of consistency and a premier choice for families in the Alpharetta area.

Open Quote The school does poorly with communications. Since fall of 2017, it is like no one cares. They don't care about students and students are not treated with respect. Close Quote

Open Quote My son did not have good experience with his 5th grade Teacher. She does not care to explain him what he was given a Star. My son is very upset and keeps saying that he is penalized for someone else talking in class. This is not the first time. My son strongly believes that he is blamed for no reason and has developed some kind of hatred for his 5th grade teacher. We moved from Dallas and have never experienced such kind of behavior. We trust our son more than anyone else. When we emailed his teacher and offered to talk in person, she does not even encourage talking. It's pathetic to see such behavior from a 5th grade teacher. I never recommend this school. Close Quote

Open Quote We absolutely love Medlock Bridge Elementary and we are so thrilled that we chose this area. We have a brand new principal who started this year who is warm and welcoming. We could not have picked a better school to send our children to!! Close Quote

Open Quote You need to take care of your kid for everything... You need to inquire about any extracurricular activities... You need to prepare (100%) your kid for any external events (like Tech Fair etc.).
Staff/Teacher loses important documents you submitted... But they claim that you never submitted...
Also communications are awful, do not expect call back for voice message or immediate response on emails... Best thing is to talk in person over anything...
School is ranked within first 50 becz of parent's continuous involvement. Close Quote
