Best Public Schools in Zip Code 30315

Summary:

The 30315 zip code area of Atlanta, Georgia is home to 15 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools, all part of the Atlanta Public Schools district. While the district as a whole is ranked 149 out of 203 districts in Georgia and has an overall rating of 1 out of 5 stars, a few standout schools in the area are performing better than others.

Atlanta Neighborhood Charter - Elementary, a charter elementary school, ranks 138 out of 1,248 Georgia elementary schools and has a 4 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. It has significantly higher proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the district and state averages. Another charter school, Ethos Classical Charter School, also has higher proficiency rates than the district and state. At the high school level, Carver High School Early College stands out with a relatively high 91.7% four-year graduation rate compared to the other high schools in the area.

However, the data also highlights significant disparities in educational outcomes and resources within the 30315 zip code. While the charter schools seem to be providing better educational opportunities for their students, the traditional public schools struggle with low proficiency rates and graduation rates. For example, Thomas Heathe Slater Elementary School has very low proficiency rates, and Hank Aaron New Beginnings Academy has a 0.0% four-year graduation rate, despite having the highest spending per student at $45,343. Understanding the factors contributing to these differences could inform strategies to improve educational equity in the region.
