An Academy for the Gifted and Talented

Genesis Innovation Academy is a state charter school in south Atlanta serving boys and girls in grades K-8, providing a new model for a higher-standard, valuesbased education.

We know that focusing on test scores alone is not the endgame. In place of a heightened focus on test preparation, teachers elevate expectations by engaging scholars in relevant, rigorous, and applied problem-solving.

Based on the E5 Core (Economics, Engineering, Ethics, Expression, Entrepreneurship), our curriculum emphasizes comprehension, problem-solving, and realworld, culturally relevant application to ensure scholars become critical thinkers and exceptional leaders.

Now accepting applications for 2023-2024, while open seats remain.
