It's kind of crazy that as affluent and nice as Brookhaven is, the schooling AS A WHOLE is abysmal. Cross Keys is the only HS and it sucks, and the elementary/middle options aren't much better. There's 1 elementary that stands above the rest so that's the one I'd guess yall live near especially since you said there's tons of families moving into it still

Kids in most of Brookhaven go to Chamblee MS & HS, though (Ashford Park ES and Montgomery ES - which is for North Brookhaven, up near Murphey Candler/Marist/Perimeter). Only the Buford Hwy corridor goes to Cross Keys (which is why the demographics there are what they are). Montgomery and Ashford Park are both really good ES. John Lewis is new and is right across Dresden from our neighborhood on Skyland, but it's basically the feeder school to Cross Keys now.

However, a whole lot of folks who now live in the city send their kids to private schools for middle/high schools. It was always like that but it really took off during COVID.
