Chamblee Charter High School reported an enrollment of 584 white students for the 2024-25 school year, reflecting a 3.6% decrease compared with the prior year, according to the Georgia Department of Education.

According to the data, overall enrollment at Chamblee Charter High School stood at 1,828 students in the 2024-25 school year. White students accounted for 32% of the total student population, making them the second-largest demographic at the school.

The campus is part of the DeKalb County School District, headquartered in Decatur.

Within the 129 DeKalb County School District schools, Dunwoody High School recorded the largest white student enrollment in 2024-25, with 728 students.

The Georgia Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 report showed more than 1.7 million students enrolled in Georgia public schools. The highest numbers were in elementary grades at 787,206 students (45.9%), followed by middle school with 388,733 (22.7%), and high school with 539,092 (31.4%).

Statewide, chronic absenteeism continues to challenge Georgia schools after the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, according to figures from the Georgia Department of Education. In response, GaDOE established a statewide initiative featuring a real-time attendance dashboard, a public education campaign, and enhanced support for districts with high needs to improve attendance.

By 2025, Georgia legislators enacted a law updating attendance rules, forbidding expulsion solely based on absenteeism. The legislation also introduced new reporting requirements and supports programs that offer alternative diploma pathways for students.

In 2026, Georgia posted an average student-to-teacher ratio near 14:1, outpacing the national average of 15:1.
