The Friends School of Atlanta (FSA) is a vibrant PreK3 through grade 8 independent school rooted in Quaker values. Since its founding in 1991, FSA has been committed to nurturing academic success, fostering a diverse and inclusive community, and instilling a deep sense of social responsibility in its students. As the only Quaker school in Georgia, FSA provides a unique educational environment where peace, integrity, equality and community are central to the student experience.
At the heart of FSA’s mission is the Quaker belief in the “Inner Light,” the idea that people have a divine light within themselves. This belief guides the school’s approach to education, fostering both academic and personal growth. With small class sizes and a dedicated faculty, FSA provides a nurturing atmosphere where students grow into compassionate, thoughtful individuals who contribute positively to the world. Students are encouraged to engage in inquiry-based learning, service projects, and collaborative activities that emphasize empathy, critical thinking, and a commitment to justice. FSA prepares its graduates to lead lives of purpose and integrity, grounded in the principles of Quakerism. Schedule a tour and learn more at friendsschoolatlanta.org.
