Summary:

ZIP code 30102 in Acworth, Georgia, is served by four elementary schools (PK-5) across three districts—Cherokee County, Cobb County, and Bartow County—with no middle or high schools in the immediate area, totaling 2,846 students.

Allatoona Elementary School is the standout performer, earning the best state ranking (521st of 1,219, 57th percentile) despite serving the highest percentage of economically disadvantaged students (84.5% free/reduced lunch). It leads the area in 5th-grade science (48.4% vs. state's 44.2%) and 3rd-grade math (47.6%), and it outperforms its Bartow County district by 7 points or more in several subjects. In contrast, Oak Grove Elementary School struggles most, ranking 803rd (34th percentile) with a declining three-year trajectory, despite spending the most per student ($18,015) and having the lowest student-teacher ratio (11.4:1). Its math proficiency is well below state averages at every grade level (e.g., 27.5% in 3rd grade vs. 48.3% statewide). Clark Creek Elementary School is the largest (1,108 students) and shows a mixed picture—strong 5th-grade math (45.3%) and the area's best 5th-grade ELA (47.8% in 2024-25), but its state ranking slipped to 618th (49th percentile) in 2025-26. Pitner Elementary School is the most stable mid-range option (539th, 56th percentile), with the area's best 3rd-grade math (53.2%) and a dramatic 11.3-point improvement in 5th-grade math from 2024-25 to 2025-26.

Science is a consistent weakness, with three of four schools below the state average in 5th-grade science—Clark Creek's 29.5% is especially low. Chronic absenteeism is a bright spot: all schools are well under the state's 17.7% rate, ranging from 7.9% (Oak Grove) to 12.9% (Allatoona). Notably, despite Cherokee County's strong district ranking (22nd of 201), its two schools here underperform relative to schools in lower-ranked districts, suggesting school-level factors matter more than district reputation. For parents, Allatoona offers the best overall outcomes despite high poverty, while Oak Grove's high spending hasn't translated into results—making school choice within this ZIP code highly consequential.
