Summary:

Zip code 30263 in Newnan, Georgia, is home to 8 elementary schools serving grades PK-5, all part of the highly-rated Coweta County School District, which ranks in the 83rd percentile statewide.

Families in this area will find a clear two-tier system of schools. Brooks Elementary is the standout performer, ranking in the 94th percentile with a 5-star rating and achieving math proficiency rates of 78-87%—nearly double the state average. It also boasts the lowest chronic absenteeism rate (8.3%) and the lowest poverty rate (28% free/reduced lunch) in the group. Elm Street Elementary School and Northside Elementary School round out the upper tier with 4-star ratings and rankings in the top 15% statewide. Northside deserves special attention for its remarkable 23.7-point jump in 5th grade science proficiency year-over-year. On the other end, Jefferson Parkway Elementary School ranks in the bottom 20% (1 star) with math proficiency below 30% and the highest chronic absenteeism rate (21.2%). Arnco-Sargent Elementary School and Atkinson Elementary School also struggle, ranking in the 35th and 49th percentiles respectively.

One of the most striking findings is the inverse relationship between spending and performance. Brooks Elementary spends the least per student ($12,468) and has the largest class sizes (16:1), yet achieves the best results. Meanwhile, Ruth Hill Elementary School spends the most ($19,241) with the smallest classes (9.8:1) but ranks in the middle. This suggests that socioeconomic factors and attendance—not just resources—drive outcomes. Schools with lower poverty rates consistently outperform those with higher poverty rates, and chronic absenteeism closely tracks performance. Western Elementary School sits in the middle tier (67th percentile) with moderate performance. For parents, the data clearly points to Brooks Elementary as the top choice academically, while schools like Jefferson Parkway Elementary School face significant challenges that may warrant closer investigation.
