Private & church schools in Stone Mountain, Lithonia & South DeKalb
South and east DeKalb, where small Christian academies are common and Lithonia, Stone Mountain and Redan schools are on the Promise list.
Where this comes from. School facts are from the NCES Private School Survey (2023-24, or 2021-22 for schools that didn't respond), matched by name and address to Georgia's 2026-27 Promise Scholarship participating list (approved as of April 23, 2026) and GaDOE's 2026-27 Special Needs Scholarship list (August 2026), retrieved October 28, 2026. Tuition isn't in any of these records, so confirm it with the school.
