President’s Message
Welcome to the 2021-22 academic year at Tallulah Falls School, starting on Aug. 9, 2021
We are excited to provide a safe, world-class college-preparatory experience for approximately 550 students this year. Our students, faculty, staff, parents and supporters form a close-knit school family where everyone feels a sense of belonging and purpose. We all work together as a team to accomplish a common mission.
Students, you are filled with an eagerness and curiosity to learn. I know you proudly wear the school crest, proclaiming to all you are a part of the TFS legacy. I challenge each of you to strive for excellence in everything you do, never settling for less than your very best efforts. Those efforts will be rewarded as you progress at TFS.
All new and returning students have a number of outstanding facilities to enjoy, including our 500-acre campus providing the perfect setting for learning with the beautiful Northeast Georgia mountains as a backdrop. Expanding on a variety of first-class facilities on campus, is the new 10-lane natatorium. This continual improvement in facilities supports our college-preparatory program. But, our greatest asset is the student body that makes this place come alive. That is why I look forward to coming to work every day.
Parents and guardians, thank you for entrusting TFS with the privilege of educating your children. We do not take this lightly. We will do everything in our power to ensure your children thrive in our supportive environment, growing and developing into successful and caring people.
Our Student-Parent Handbook outlines our basic expectations, guidelines and policies. It is important for both students and parents to read and understand this document. If you have questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We are extremely excited about this year, as a great school, great students and great parents come together in a mutually beneficial partnership where the sky is truly the limit!
Warm regards,
Larry A. Peevy President and Head of School
