The school is part of the Fulton County School District, which is ranked 57th out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, Campbell Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the Fulton County and Georgia state averages in the Milestones Assessment for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of 5th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts was 32.1% at Campbell, compared to 59.6% in Fulton County and 48.2% statewide. The school's statewide ranking has also been low, ranging from 575 out of 1,231 Georgia elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 1,005 out of 1,234 in 2018-2019, and most recently 724 out of 1,248 in the 2023-2024 school year, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Further analysis reveals that Campbell Elementary School has a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating a high-poverty student population. While the school's spending per student has increased over the years, from $10,773 in 2016-2017 to $12,373 in 2018-2019, this higher funding has not translated into improved academic performance. When compared to nearby schools in the Fulton County district, Campbell Elementary consistently underperforms, with proficiency rates ranging from 26.6% at Feldwood Elementary to 50% at Renaissance Elementary in the 2023-2024 school year.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
