Value Added Results:

The building is located in the heart of a neighborhood in SW Atlanta that otherwise would not have any education in such close proximity. In addition, it provides students w/in the Atlanta public school System w/ a high quality education option vs Atlanta public schools which have struggled to perform for years.

In just three short years of operation the school made such a significant impact on the SE Atlanta neighborhood it’s located in, it drew the attention and support of many national CDFIs. This support enabled the school to exercise its purchase option and acquire the facility from CSDC in January 2022.
