 Students


 North Atlanta High School prides itself in offering every student the opportunity for intellectual and personal growth.  The school is organized into three Small Learning Communities (SLCs): the Center for International Studies, the Center for Business Hospitality and Leadership, and the Center for the Arts.

NAHS also offers Advanced Placement (AP) courses and four foreign language options (Arabic, Chinese, French, and Spanish).  Regardless of which SLC each student chooses, they are encouraged to develop not only academic and leadership skills, but also strong values based on an ethic of tolerance and personal responsibility.  Our students are nurtured and challenged and when they graduate, they are prepared to meet the demands of this new millennium.

North Atlanta High School was formed by the Atlanta Board of Education in September 1991 by consolidating North Fulton High School and Northside High School.  The former Northside High School campus underwent a $15 million renovation, which was completed in 1994.  The enlarged facility offers students a spacious setting conducive to all aspects of student life.  Well, that was sometime ago, and was only the beginning of many improvements in the facilities and programs offered.  Here are a few highlights of some exciting things currently in the works:

  • NAHS has been identified as a top priority for renovation with SPLOST 3 funds; a $25 million renovation is underway and will be completed within 24 months, without students moving off campus.  Renovation of bathrooms is nearly complete; renovation of lighting, HVAC, asthetics, classrooms, theatre, tennis courts and landscaping will begin immediately.
  • NAHS has also been selected to be the pilot high school program to receive 650 Linux Thin Client computers, and we also have a new Mac lab with 30 computers on the way. 
  • Juilliard has also  become an official partner with NAHS and will be offering a summer workshop!
