Summary:
ZIP code 30024 in Suwanee, Georgia, is served by 16 schools—10 elementary, 2 middle, and 4 high schools—spanning Pre-K through 12th grade and split between Forsyth County and Gwinnett County districts, with a total enrollment of roughly 21,100 students.
This area offers exceptional educational options, particularly at the elementary level, where all 10 schools rank in the top 15% of Georgia elementary schools. Level Creek Elementary School leads the ZIP code at #7 in the state, followed closely by Johns Creek Elementary (#11) and Suwanee Elementary School (#17), which has climbed 43 spots over two years. At the secondary level, Riverwatch Middle School ranks #16 among Georgia middle schools, while Lambert High School (#10) and North Gwinnett High School (#26) are both 5-star high schools. Lambert stands out with a 98.2% graduation rate and math proficiency scores 25–38 points above state averages, while North Gwinnett maintains consistent top-30 rankings.
However, performance varies significantly within the ZIP code. Collins Hill High School and Peachtree Ridge High School trail their peers, with Peachtree Ridge declining in state ranking for three straight years and Algebra I proficiency (36.4%) now below the state average. Chronic absenteeism ranges dramatically—from 3.0% at Riverside Elementary School to 28.4% at Collins Hill. Notably, spending does not predict outcomes: Burnette Elementary School and Walnut Grove Elementary School spend the most per student yet rank among the lowest performers, while Lambert spends the least and achieves the best results. Both middle schools excel in Algebra acceleration, with 99–100% proficiency, but Northbrook Middle School lags Riverwatch overall. For families, 30024 provides strong options across all grade levels, though the Forsyth/Gwinnett district divide—and socioeconomic differences reflected in free/reduced lunch rates—are worth weighing carefully.
