Summary

Feldwood Elementary School in College Park, GA, serves 678 students in Pre-K through 5th grade, with all students eligible for free or reduced lunch in a high-poverty community within the Fulton County district.

The most significant challenge at Feldwood is chronic absenteeism. At 29.2%, it is nearly double the district average (16.6%) and the state average (17.7%). This is a stark contrast to nearby schools like Liberty Point Elementary School (12.8%), Nolan Elementary School (12.2%), and Oakley Elementary School (12.0%). Only Heritage Elementary School (28.3%) shows a similarly high rate. While attendance has improved from a high of 39.0% in 2021-2022, it remains a critical issue likely impacting academics. In math and science, proficiency rates are consistently below district and state averages—for example, 4th-grade math proficiency is 30.4% compared to 64% for the district and 50.1% for the state.

Despite these challenges, there are notable strengths. Feldwood’s subgroup ranking for African American students is in the 49th percentile, significantly higher than its overall 26th percentile ranking, indicating the school is particularly effective for its primary demographic. The school also shows a positive trajectory, improving from 976th in state ranking in 2021-2022 to 786th in 2024-2025 before settling at 904th. Per-student spending is high at $19,021, comparable to Brookview Elementary School ($19,519) and Campbell Elementary School ($19,089), yet lower-spending schools like Liberty Point ($17,816) achieve much higher results. The comparison with Liberty Point—just 3.7 miles away, also with 100% free/reduced lunch—is striking: Liberty Point ranks in the 61st percentile with 12.8% absenteeism and 58.1% 4th-grade math proficiency. This suggests that addressing attendance and replicating successful instructional models from higher-performing peers could be powerful levers for improvement at Feldwood.
