Summary

Lawrenceville Elementary School serves approximately 677 students in grades PK through 5 in Lawrenceville, GA, within the Gwinnett County School District, where a large majority of families (81.4%) qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Lawrenceville Elementary currently ranks in the bottom third of Georgia elementary schools, earning a 1-star rating and placing 859th out of 1,219 schools statewide. Math proficiency rates range from 27.5% in 5th grade to 38.8% in 3rd grade, compared to district averages of 51.6% to 56.8%. Science proficiency in 5th grade is 29.5%, well below the district's 54.8%. However, the school shows notable strengths with specific student groups: African American students rank in the 72nd percentile statewide (4-star rating), and English Language Learners rank in the 61st percentile (3-star rating). These results are significantly better than the school's overall performance, suggesting effective support for these populations. The school also shows a positive trajectory—its ranking improved from the 13th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 30th percentile in 2025-2026, with 3rd grade math proficiency nearly doubling from 18.8% to 38.8% over that period.

Compared to nearby schools, the picture is mixed. Pharr Elementary School (3.87 miles away) ranks in the 89th percentile, and Craig Elementary School (3.28 miles away) ranks in the 91st percentile with math proficiency rates more than double Lawrenceville's. However, Baggett Elementary School (4.11 miles away) ranks in the 42nd percentile, and Jenkins Elementary School (1.89 miles away) ranks in the 41st percentile. Chronic absenteeism at Lawrenceville (19.2%) is more than double that of the higher-performing nearby schools, though it has improved steadily from 28.7% in 2021-2022. The school spends $16,034 per student—higher than several better-performing neighbors—and maintains a favorable 12.4:1 student-teacher ratio, yet outcomes remain lower, suggesting that addressing attendance and targeted support for Hispanic and Special Education students (who rank in the 16th and 14th percentiles respectively) may be key next steps.

What people are saying
by a teacher
Wednesday, June 5, 2019

Open Quote It was not as great as I would hope. I truly loved the students.. the faculty and staff they are truly hard workers and deserve better appreciation . With extra support and appreciation, the principal could have really made a difference in my experience and I know for a fact that the same holds true to the other teachers/staff that left this school year.
Lack of appreciation and support by principal and a constant adjustment to new administration coming almost every 6 months.
Takes forever for students that are Tier 3 or above to truly get the help they need. Lack of communication.
Bullying is quite prominent in majority of the grade levels. Consequences given by administration does not help to resolve the problem (i.e. giving treats after visits) Close Quote
