Best Public Schools in Doraville, GA


Summary:

The city of Doraville, Georgia is home to 5 schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 high school. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across these schools, with Evansdale Elementary School standing out as the top-performing school in the area, while Hightower Elementary and Pleasantdale Elementary struggle with low test scores and poor statewide rankings.

Evansdale Elementary boasts the highest statewide ranking among the elementary schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, and significantly stronger test scores than the DeKalb County and state averages. In contrast, Hightower and Pleasantdale have 0-1 star ratings and test scores well below the county and state benchmarks.

The high school in the area, Tapestry Public Charter School, has a mix of strengths and weaknesses. While it has a higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio, its test scores are somewhat uneven, with strong performance in some subjects but weaker results in others. This highlights the need for a more in-depth analysis of charter school effectiveness in the Doraville area.
