Nearly one in three students at Alpharetta High School is Asian, well above the Fulton County average of 9.2%, according to Georgia Department of Education data reported Friday, July 10, 2026.

Alpharetta High enrolled 641 Asian students in the 2024-25 school year, 32% of its 2,005-student body. That share is more than triple the district-wide rate and places the school among a cluster of North Fulton campuses with high Asian enrollment.

Milton High School presents a different picture. The school led all 103 Fulton County campuses in white student enrollment, with 1,147 white students out of 1,978 total, according to the same Georgia Department of Education dataset. White students account for roughly 58% of Milton's student body.

Cambridge High School, the newest of the three area high schools, enrolled 193 Asian students, or 12% of its 1,609 total. Milton High reported 197 Asian students, about 10%.

North Fulton stands out

The North Fulton corridor holds the highest concentrations of Asian students in the district. Northview High School recorded the largest Asian enrollment of any Fulton County school: 861 students, or 54% of its 1,595-student body. Alpharetta High ranked 16th district-wide in total Asian students and tied with Chattahoochee High School at 32%.

Across Fulton County's 132,036-student system, Asian enrollment grew 3.6% over the prior year to 12,165 students, the state data shows. Asian students are the fourth most represented racial group in the district.

Two schools, similar size, different composition

Alpharetta High and Milton High are nearly identical in enrollment — 2,005 and 1,978 students, respectively — but differ sharply in racial composition. At Alpharetta High, Asian students form the largest non-white group at 32%, and no single racial category holds a clear majority. At Milton High, white students make up the dominant share at 58%.

The two schools sit fewer than seven miles apart along GA-9.

Georgia's public schools enrolled more than 1.7 million students in the 2024-25 school year, according to the Georgia Department of Education. Fulton County's 132,036 students make it one of the state's largest districts. The data does not include prior-year breakdowns for individual schools, so year-over-year changes at Alpharetta High, Milton High, and Cambridge High cannot be confirmed from this release.
