Summary

Grayson Elementary School in Grayson, GA, serves approximately 1,095 students in grades PK-5 within the Gwinnett County School District, and it has earned a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past decade, ranking in the 82nd percentile statewide for the 2025-2026 school year.

This school stands out for its exceptional work with specific student groups. Grayson Elementary ranks in the top 4% of all Georgia elementary schools for African American student outcomes (96th percentile, 5 stars) and in the 90th percentile for English Language Learners (5 stars)—both remarkable achievements that show the school’s instructional strategies are effective for diverse learners. The school also boasts a remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of just 7.0%, less than half the district rate (15.0%) and well below the state average (17.7%), which points to strong family engagement and a positive school culture. Academically, Grayson consistently outperforms state averages by 14 to 19 percentage points in math and science. For example, 3rd grade math proficiency is 67.2% versus the state’s 44.1%, and science proficiency is 60.4% versus 44.2% statewide.

While Grayson is a solid choice, it faces two notable challenges. Its performance with Special Education students ranks in the 10th percentile (0 stars), a significant gap compared to its other subgroup results. Additionally, 5th grade math shows a consistent dip (58.3% proficiency in 2025-2026, and just 45.9% in 2023-2024), suggesting a transition challenge as students approach middle school. In the immediate neighborhood, Grayson is surrounded by strong competitors: Craig Elementary School (91st percentile) and Pharr Elementary School (89th percentile) rank higher, while Starling Elementary School (86th percentile) is improving. Still, Grayson’s low absenteeism, strong equity-focused outcomes, and moderate per-student spending ($14,745) make it a dependable, community-anchored option for families seeking a well-rounded elementary experience.
