Brookwood High School reported enrolling 939 white students during the 2024-25 school year, a 5.5% decrease compared to the prior year, according to the Georgia Department of Education.

According to the data, Brookwood High School had a total enrollment of 3,759 students in 2024-25. White students accounted for 25% of all enrolled, making them the second-largest student demographic at the school.

The school is part of the Gwinnett County School District, based in Lawrenceville.

North Gwinnett High School had the highest white student enrollment among the district’s 140 schools in 2024-25, with 1,113 students.

The National Center for Education Statistics reported Georgia public school students as approximately 36.4% Black, 35.9% white, 18.1% Hispanic, 4% Asian, 4.6% multiracial, 0.2% American Indian or Alaska Native, and 0.1% Pacific Islander.

Chronic absenteeism continues to affect Georgia schools following the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, according to the Georgia Department of Education. To address this, GaDOE has implemented a statewide initiative featuring a real-time attendance dashboard, public awareness campaign, and targeted support for districts identified as high need to improve attendance rates.

In 2025, Georgia legislators approved updates to school attendance laws that prohibit expulsion solely due to absenteeism. The new law also includes additional reporting requirements and supports programs that provide alternative diploma pathways for students.

By 2026, Georgia’s average student-teacher ratio was about 14:1, compared to the national average of 15:1.
