Independent & Other Private Schools in Decatur, Druid Hills & Tucker

23 independent & other private schools in the record for Decatur, Druid Hills & Tucker; 8 on the 2026-27 Promise list and 13 authorized for GSNS. Central DeKalb around the city of Decatur, Emory and Toco Hills, with Catholic parish schools, Montessori programs, Torah Day School and other Jewish schools.

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.

Funding note: Georgia's scholarship laws don't care whether a school is religious. Accreditation is what decides whether Promise or an SSO can pay it.
