High-quality Montessori materials: We equip each of our vibrant classroom communities with the didactic Montessori materials, developed by Maria Montessori herself.

Education for life: We help children develop independence, a working memory, flexible thinking, organization and self-control, all hallmarks of the Montessori system of education. Non-competitive relationships: We foster supportive, mutually beneficial relationships between children in our multi-age classrooms. The younger children learn by observing the older children.

High Meadows School There is no place like High Meadows School. Since 1973, High Meadows students in Pre-K through 8th grade have learned through experiential, immersive educational opportunities offered both in the school’s spacious, light-filled classrooms and across 42 acres of grassy fields and scenic woodlands. High Meadows School’s progressive curriculum is focused on developing future global citizens and innovative leaders who embrace challenge and think for themselves. High Meadows lower years classrooms offer low student-teacher ratios in which instruction emphasizes academic excellence, love of learning, critical thinking, and environmental and social responsibility. As a nationally recognized and award-winning leader in progressive education, High Meadows is an accredited International Baccalaureate (IB) World School offering its renowned Primary Years Program for students in preschool through fifth grade. High Meadows School’s accomplished and experienced faculty lead each student on this journey. Through interactive, inquiry-based instruction, supported by of-the-moment technology and our naturebased campus, High Meadows teachers are unequaled in their intellect, passion, and compassion for these kids. Every day they inspire authentic learning opportunities that are engaging and sticky (literally and figuratively!). When children graduate from High Meadows, they are empowered with a deep respect for international perspectives, an intuitive understanding of life’s in-

terconnectedness, and an exceedingly strong sense of self. Education is an expedition that starts from the moment we are born. When we teach children to be curious and inquiring at an early age, we create within them a love of learning that lasts an entire lifetime. What is more important than that? Come see how all this comes to life with a tour of

our campus. We invite you to talk with us about how your child may find his or her sense of place with us, and speak with current and alumni parents to learn about their own experiences firsthand. highmeadows.org 770-993-2940

Since 1973, High Meadows has inspired children in Pre-K through 8th Grade to think critically, learn creatively, act globally, and live compassionately.

Inspiring, encouraging, and empowering the young minds of today Our children are growing up in a fast-paced world full of technological advances and endless opportunities. As your child develops, it is very important to help them be prepared for the challenges, as well as the adventure! In the article, “How to Raise a WellRounded Child,” co-authored by Paul Chernyak, LPC, “Many parents want to provide their children with the tools necessary for success. However, this can often result in parents pressuring children into overtraining or specializing in sports or activities at a young age. Instead, you should strive to raise a well-rounded child. This can be done by laying the foundation for your child to excel in a number of areas: academically, socially, and through the development of special interests. In order to raise a well-rounded child, you should develop strong work habits, teach social skills, provide a supportive environment, and promote the development of a healthy lifestyle.” At Bridgeway Christian Academy (BCA), the staff and faculty focus on the whole child by providing excellence in Christ-centered education, equipping students to Know, Grow, and Go. In fact, Chernyak recommends four distinct methods; 1) Developing Effective Work

Habits, 2) Teaching Social Skills, 3) Providing a Supportive Environment, 4) Promoting a Healthy Lifestyle BCA focuses on three principles: KNOW, GROW, AND GO which are very similar to the four methods of

Chernyak’s article. By focusing on these three principles, BCA provides a loving, and safe environment that equips the whole child for growing up in a 21st century world. Through BCA’s STEM program

Woodward North Intimate, yet worldly. Nurturing, yet academically rigorous. Loving, yet on the cutting edge of technology. Can a school really have it all? We think it has to. Woodward North is the Johns Creek campus of Woodward Academy. Enrolling pre-K through sixth grade students and located on 33 beautifully wooded acres, it combines the intimacy of home with the resources of our Main Campus. With an average studentteacher ratio of 9:1, everyone from our principal to our school nurse to our beloved teachers is dedicated to caring for our kids every step of the way, while guiding them through a challenging college-preparatory curriculum. Expertise in science, math, reading, and writing is just the tip of the iceberg at Woodward North. We incorporate our STEAM programs throughout the curriculum, preparing our students for success amidst a rapidly changing world. Students in pre-K through third grade enjoy classes where they are taught foundational skills in technology, robotics and coding as well as general computer skills. Students in fourth through sixth grades take advanced classes in these subjects, with additional emphasis on engineering, design thinking, research, media production, and life skills to encourage and inspire critical thinking, problemsolving, and engaged collaboration. In addition, our Learning labs and our dedicated STEAM Station are outfitted with the latest technology like BeeBots, SmartBoards, iPads, and other robotics and engineering tools that students use to solve real-world problems. Educating the whole child means cocurricular programs, athletics, and the arts are a vital part of every student’s educational journey. From horseback riding to golf to an array of of other athletic options, every student is active

at Woodward North. Our arts programs are similarly extensive. Our students learn skills in music, performance, drawing, painting, and crafts that set them up for a lifetime of creative work. But all these programs and curricula only mean as much as the community behind them; at Woodward, students are part of a truly diverse community that cultivates strong character and a deep respect for difference. Here, these are more than buzzwords-diversity is our backbone. Every day, our students bring experiences from a vast array of cultures, ethnicities, religions, races, learning styles, and geographic neighborhoods, which means that every day they learn from peers who are different from them. We emphasize our global curriculum and service to support civic engagement. Our diversity, service, and global programs create truly compassionate citizens of the world. Most Woodward North students continue on to Main Campus in seventh grade for a whole new world of opportunities, including our Independent Scientific Research and Global Connections programs. The Academy provides extensive bus transportation, and many students choose to ride MARTA in designated Woodward cars with assigned security officers. A typical Woodward Academy graduating class attends more than 100 different colleges and universities, devotes 5,000 hours to community service, and earns more than $15 million in scholarships. They join an alumni network of 10,000+ and go on to live every version of success as engineers, musicians, professors, business leaders, you name it. To learn more about Woodward and the vast options available for students to create their own path, visit us at woodward.edu.

Milton Montessori continues to grow Milton Montessori School started in January 2008 as Red Apple Montessori. Back then, there were only two classrooms, one Toddler and one Primary. Through the years, the school has added two additional classrooms, and now, Milton Montessori School has a state of the art new 6000 sq. ft building. The expansion allowed Milton Montessori School to offer Montessori programs from infants through elementary level. While the school will utilize the original school building and the new building for the Infant, Toddler, Primary and elementary classrooms. Along with the new building, there will be additional playground space added with new equipment’s, a soccer field and the outdoor learning environment will include a newly expanded garden. While the growth of the school has added more classrooms and space, several key things remain the same. The teaching staff at Milton Montessori has been the same since the early days of the school. As the classrooms were added, the Montessori teaching staff grew too, and they have stayed.

This Montessori teaching staff has around 170 years of combined teaching experience, and that is not the only thing that sets Milton Montessori School apart from other schools. Another valu-
