Important Notes for Families:

• Zoned High Schools (such as Midtown and North Atlanta) are assigned based on your residential address and Atlanta Public Schools cluster boundaries. Zoning can change slightly over time, so always verify with APS before purchasing a home.
• Charter Schools (such as Atlanta Classical Academy and Charles R. Drew Charter School) are not guaranteed by address. Most require applications and/or lotteries for admission.
• High school performance often has a stronger impact on long-term outcomes, including college admissions, AP/IB credit, and graduation rates. The schools listed here consistently rank in the top 25-30% of all Georgia high schools and tend to offer more rigorous coursework.
• School ratings and proficiency percentages can shift modestly from year to year depending on testing cohorts and state standards.

When evaluating neighborhoods or specific homes, we recommend checking both the assigned high school and the feeder middle and elementary schools, as strong K-8 preparation often supports success in high school.
