Senior: For what the school lacks in facilities and strong sports team, it makes up with incredibly devoted teachers who work relentlessly to ensure that every student is getting the best education they can. The education succeeds other Atlanta private schools, despite being a free charter school. The spirit is strong as everyone knows each other and contributes to the overall life of the school. However, being a small charter school with minimal funding creates a lack of facilities and ability to have strong sports teams. There are still many ways to get involved and be apart of the community despite the obstacles.... Read 16 reviews

Parent: This is our 3rd year at ICSAtlanta (2 children). My son attended another local area charter school, which we chose because they teach Arabic. Because language instruction was just a few days a week, he was not learning very much. Now he is fluent in French! My daughter is proficient as well. Both kids LOVE their teachers and the environment there. No school is perfect, but this is as close as it gets for our family. My daughter started in K and will hopefully get all the way through in 8th grade. My son is looking forward to middle school next fall after an amazing elementary experience. So thankful for the diversity, small class sizes, and family atmosphere.... Read 9 reviews

Middle School Student: The school is very good in terms of academics however some teachers are really good at teaching but some just don’t teach at all and they give the hardest tests too. The students here are ok. Most people here are nice but, just like any school, there will always be toxic students who spread rumors and talk bad about people. The food here used to be good but ever since covid the food sucks now. I have made some good memories and good friends at this school.... Read 16 reviews

Middle School Student: I am a student at Autrey Mill. The teachers are amazing, especially the French teacher. However, there are many fights, about once a month. The food is terrible. Never buy school lunch. I am vegetarian and once I was unable to eat the nachos because the teacher refused to serve it to me without meat. The bathrooms are not particularly clean, and often do not have soap or toilet paper.... Read 7 reviews

Parent: We switched from our zoned school to FAST when it originally opened 6 years ago. The main reason we were interested is because they look at the whole student. You can be on level or behind in one subject and not be penalized and kept out of higher level work in another one. They started doing social-emotional learning long before it was the “it” thing to do. And design thinking prepares you for the real world. The real world isn’t a bunch of standardize tests. It’s critical thinking and finding solutions. I’m so glad for this school, it makes my heart happy. And my children have done very well there.... Read 11 reviews

Parent: Amana is an excellent place for students to learn. My children learned so much and often talk about how they would've never had the opportunity to learn about so many issues in the world, STEM that they can apply to their learning, foreign language, and being around a diverse group of students and teachers had they not attended Amana. This is a special school. Highly recommend.... Read 6 reviews

Parent: My kids are in 7th and this year has been wonderful! The teachers have no issues contacting you with anything positive or negative. It’s also easy to contact the counselor or any staff you wish to via email or phone. The front office staff are AMAZING and do their best to remember your name and child’s name, at least one of the names. I also love this new system in this year that parents receive a call and email if their child misses one or more classes Incase the parent is unaware of the missed class or missed day, a call to them will let you know specifics. But last year I really didn’t like the school but it was all me and all mental games, but it’s like many parents going to 6th grade. It is a tough year because you’re going not only a new school but you also have a change in administrators and rules to get used to. Going from being at a school for 6 years with kindergarten or 7 with pre k. It’s a change but a welcome change... Read 6 reviews

Middle School Student: Inman Is a very good middle school I have learned a lot. There are very good teachers. (Shout out to the best teachers Ms Hughes and Ms Hurt). The bathrooms suck but what do you expect from a public middle school. The school has given me a lot to remember. The classes are fun and very engaging I have learned a lot from the school and it will follow me into high school. I have very memorable experiences and there is no other middle school I would have wanted to go to... Read 4 reviews

Senior: The teachers at Ridgeview really cared about the students. They gave it their all when they taught their class. Unfortunately, most of the students in the “on level”classes did not care about school. Most of the class time was spent dealing with disruptive students. The music departments were incredible, as well as the sports programs.... Read 7 reviews

Parent: Sutton is becoming increasingly better each year! The new administration cares about the students, families, and staff and are making great improvements in the processes and hiring of new faculty members. The 6th grade campus allows for a nurturing, smooth transition into middle school. Students are challenged in positive ways and encouraged to do their best by engaged teachers. The various clubs and activities allow students to grow emotionally as well as academically. The wonderfully diverse community is both involved and supportive. Why pay for a private school when you have Sutton in your neighborhood?... Read 12 reviews

Alum: I think many of the teachers and staff at Holcomb Bridge are quite nice and can be helpful for the most part. It has been a School of Excellence for at least a couple of years. The school's overall culture is quite decent, but once every so often, fights are known to happen there (or at least while I attended there). Basically, for a middle school, Holcomb Bridge is quite good. It should also be mentioned that there are some high school courses that students can take while still at Holcomb (e.g.: Algebra I, Physical Science, Spanish I, etc.).... Read 3 reviews

Parent: Our sons have attended TMSA for years and have had a stellar experience. What sets TMSA apart, for me, is the culture (based on 8 Core Values), academic rigor and strong teachers, extracurricular offerings, and probably most of all - the parental involvement. That part makes it feel like a family, which is a great learning environment for kids.... Read 4 reviews

Parent: I enjoy this school and appreciate it being an option away from the public school setting. New schools always have "growing pains", but then again older schools have their own set of issues as well. Since being at this school, I have had no concerns with communications with any staff. They have always been professional, polite, and attentive to my concerns. Does that mean we always agree? No. It definitely doesn't. However, I've never left a meeting or conference feeling unheard. In addition, I feel the staff genuinely is focused on what they feel will develop strong scholars meaning academics AND discipline. Most importantly, I feel my child is in safe environment to learn...and that makes all the difference. If I could change anything, I would suggest that academics remain separate, but integrate extra curricular electives such as Art and Coding to give some exposure to working with opposite genders in an academic environment....
