Funding fit at Atlanta Speech School
Does Atlanta Speech School accept the Georgia Promise Scholarship?
Yes. Atlanta Speech 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 SAIS (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 Speech School take the Georgia Special Needs Scholarship (GSNS)?
Yes. Atlanta Speech School is on the Georgia Department of Education's authorized participating list for the 2026-27 Special Needs Scholarship. A student who had an IEP, or a 504 plan for a listed condition, in a Georgia public school last year can bring a GSNS award here.
Authorization lets the school accept the scholarship. It doesn't mean the school provides every service in an IEP, so ask about the specific supports your child uses.
What does the record say about Atlanta Speech School?
The federal record describes Atlanta Speech School as a private school with no religious affiliation serving grades PK-6: 216 students in the federal survey (2021-22); 41 full-time-equivalent teachers, about 5 students per teacher; coeducational; classified as a special education school.
Associations it reported to the federal survey: NAEYC; National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS).
Can a four-year-old attend Atlanta Speech 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.
