Atlanta International School

Funding fit at Atlanta International School

Does Atlanta International School accept the Georgia Promise Scholarship?

Yes. Atlanta International School is on the Georgia Education Savings Authority's 2026-27 participating school list, approved as of April 23, 2026, so a student who qualifies for the Promise Scholarship can direct up to $6,500 a year to it.

The state records its accreditation as Cognia/AdvancED (accredited). A participating school may enroll Promise students only in the grades its accreditation covers, so confirm your child's grade with the admissions office.

Does Atlanta International School take the Georgia Special Needs Scholarship (GSNS)?

Not for 2026-27. Atlanta International School isn't on GaDOE's authorized participating list for the Special Needs Scholarship, so a GSNS award can't be used here this year.

There are 153 authorized schools in our directory; the special education hub lists those built around learning differences.

What does the record say about Atlanta International School?

The federal record describes Atlanta International School as a private school with no religious affiliation serving grades PK-12: 1,238 students in the federal survey (2023-24); 164 full-time-equivalent teachers, about 8 students per teacher; coeducational; classified as a special program emphasis school; 100% of its last graduating class went on to a four-year college.

Associations it reported to the federal survey: National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS).

Can a four-year-old attend Atlanta International School through Georgia Pre-K?

Possibly. The school reports pre-K students, and Georgia's lottery-funded Pre-K is free at participating private providers, but the federal record doesn't say whether this school holds a Pre-K contract. Ask, and ask whether the class continues into kindergarten here.

Can Atlanta International School students earn college credit for free?

Yes, through Georgia's Dual Enrollment program, which covers private school juniors and seniors for up to 30 semester hours of approved courses. Ask the counseling office which colleges its students use.
