From pre-K to senior year, Woodward Academy creates opportunities for each child to thrive, whether they excel in math, get inspired by robotics, or flourish in literature and art classes. With 60% students of color, Woodward is Atlanta at its very best, where students learn organically from exposure to perspectives different from their own. We immerse our students in intentional programs to teach tolerance, respect, and compassion—all so they can find their unique way into the world. We believe that all people are innately valuable as they were created, and it is that identity, that energy charges our students and graduates. Woodward is a place for nurturing conversations and understanding. We do that through our 25 AP classes, a renowned Transition Learning Support Program for students with mild learning differences, more than 100 student clubs and cocurriculars, 75 yearly arts performances, and 18 varsity sports. Our Global Connections Program offers extensive international study abroad programs, and our innovative STEAM programs are woven into the curriculum at every step of the way. 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 $25 million in scholarship awards. With two convenient metro Atlanta campuses in Historic College Park and Johns Creek, the Academy is linked by an expansive bus system, carpool, and a MARTA shuttle, servicing families from 20 counties and 100 zip codes.
