Idlewood Elementary School

Tucked into the established, tree-lined neighborhoods of Tucker — a community that's long had a fiercely independent spirit, even earning its own city status in 2016 — Idlewood Elementary serves families who appreciate a close-knit suburban feel within reach of metro Atlanta. The school draws from a diverse mix of households, and while its academic scores fall in the lower-middle range statewide, families here often value the neighborhood school experience and Tucker's strong sense of local identity. For parents looking to get involved and help shape their school community, Idlewood and Tucker's engaged, town-proud atmosphere can offer a real sense of belonging.
