More Info

General Info

Nestled among the towering oaks and fragrant magnolias of northwest Atlanta is a special place that is alive and teeming with energy. Something extraordinary is taking place here. Young lives are being forged to take the helm in the twenty-first century as leaders and as lights throughout the world. This special place is Heiskell School. Here the heartfelt desire of a dedicated faculty and staff is to glorify God as they educate the children entrusted to their care. Heiskell School offers one of the finest academic programs available at the preschool, elementary, and junior high levels. Students thrive in the close-knit, family-like atmosphere created by teachers who masterfully combine both tradition and innovative teaching methods. Classrooms are animated and inviting. Teachers tailor their instruction for academically talented students, guiding bright, curious children toward academic success. An accelerated, content rich curriculum provides an excellent foundation in phonics and grammar as well as mathematics, literature, foreign language, science and history. Students enjoy a superb fine arts program at Heiskell. Our halls ring with melodic voices and original "masterpieces" adorn the walls, showcasing the creative talents that abound here. At Heiskell, learning is a multi-faceted exploration of God's magnificent creation. Heiskell School is accredited by the Southern Association of College and Schools ( SACS ) as well as the Georgia Accrediting Commission with Quality, and is a member of the Association of Christian School International ( ACSI ), Atlanta Area Association of Independent Schools ( AAAIS ), and the Georgia Independent School Association ( GISA ). Our outstanding faculty has been prayerfully selected for their personal faith, Christian character, distinguished academic background, and commitment to impacting the lives of students. Heiskell teachers lovingly encourage students to discover the joy of knowing Jesus Christ personally, nurturing the seeds of faith as they disciple young hearts. God's Word is woven throughout the fabric of the students' day. Students discover that Scripture relates to every area of their lives their personal relationships, their character, how they work and play, how they think and speak, even the subjects they study. God's design unfolds whether students are examining the order of the universe, studying the nations of our world, tracing the Christian heritage of our country, or learning to use the gift of language. First, studying America's rich Christian heritage, students follow the history of a nation that has flourished at God's hand. Then, they "travel the world" through international studies, learning how they can be a part of God's calling to be salt and light to all peoples. From Russia to Sri Lanka, England to Brazil, Heiskell School welcomes students from many nations. Our international families "bring" the world to us, giving greater dimension to our study of the nations and motivating students to use their talents to impact the world for Christ. Academically challenging, spiritually dynamic, and internationally focused, this is the stimulating environment which is part of the daily experience for students at Heiskell School. It is an environment which enables us to work in concert with parents to fulfill the calling that we share, to "train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it, " Proverbs 22: 6.
