Best Public Schools in Zip Code 30268

Summary:

The 30268 zip code area is home to two schools: Palmetto Elementary School, a larger elementary school, and Georgia Baptist Children's Home and Family Ministries, a smaller alternative school. While Palmetto Elementary School has a longer history of performance data, the available information suggests that it has consistently underperformed compared to Fulton County and Georgia state averages on standardized assessments.

Palmetto Elementary School, with 414 students, is the more prominent school in the area. It has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks 672 out of 1,238 Georgia elementary schools. The school's Milestones Assessment scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science have consistently fallen below the Fulton County and state averages. Additionally, the school has a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating a high-poverty student population.

In contrast, the Georgia Baptist Children's Home and Family Ministries alternative school serves a much smaller population of 8 students. This school does not have any available performance data or statewide ranking information, making it difficult to assess its effectiveness in serving its students. The lack of data for this school raises questions about the educational options available to families in the 30268 zip code area.
