We are members of the Atlanta, Georgia, and National Association of Independent Schools. In the 97-98 term, students began individual ownership of laptops. As of the 98-99 term, every student will be required to own a laptop. Students choose a series of classes from the course outlines and schedules and spend the month learning about each topic. The system allows the student to make fully informed choices and to assume personal responsibility for those choices.
All students participate in values groups that focus on character development.
The goal of this time period is to enhance communication, to support our students and their families, and to integrate them successfully into the life of the school. The ultimate reward is a school climate that fosters community. Another role of the advisor is to disseminate information regarding the advisees to faculty and staff. The Communication Arts School utilizes a block schedule. This approach involves three, two-hour classes per day and allows for more intensive individual attention to the instructional needs of each student.
