Summary:

There are five elementary schools serving grades PK through 5 in zip code 30084 (Tucker, GA), spanning two districts: DeKalb County (four schools) and Gwinnett County (one school), with enrollment ranging from 383 to 1,191 students.

Livsey Elementary School is the clear standout, ranking 342nd statewide (72nd percentile, 4 stars) and outperforming state averages in nearly every subject. It spends the most per student ($24,778) and has the lowest poverty rate (65.54% free/reduced lunch). Midvale Elementary School is the most consistent improver, climbing to 490th (60th percentile) and actually beating Livsey in 5th grade math (45.6% vs. 44.5%) and science (41.1% vs. 34.2%) despite a higher poverty rate. Idlewood Elementary School (53rd percentile) and Brockett Elementary School (36th percentile) occupy the middle, with Idlewood achieving solid results despite spending $6,900 less per student than Livsey and Midvale. Nesbit Elementary School is the only Gwinnett County school and struggles significantly, ranking 1,058th (13th percentile) with all math and science scores between 22-28% proficiency—far below state averages.

Chronic absenteeism strongly tracks performance: the top three schools (Livsey, Midvale, Brockett) have rates between 14-16%, while Idlewood (23.2%) and Nesbit (19.8%) lag behind. All four DeKalb schools outperform their district's 32nd percentile average, making Tucker a relative bright spot. Notably, Livsey's 5th grade math dropped 24 points from 2024-2025 to 2025-2026, while Midvale improved by 7.5 points—suggesting cohort differences rather than program changes. For parents, Livsey and Midvale offer the strongest academics, with Midvale providing exceptional value given its higher poverty rate and near-identical spending. Nesbit's poor performance despite lower poverty than Idlewood indicates school-specific factors beyond demographics are at play.
