Excelsior Village Academies

Excelsior Village Academies is the first K-8 public charter school in Henry County, serving students across Henry, APS, Dekalb, Fulton and Clayton counties. Our mission at Excelsior Village Academies is to provide quality K-8 school choice by offering a rigorous academic program in a community centered learning environment. Students will develop the skills needed to thrive in college and careers. We guide our students to think critically and independently, and to relish learning as an end in itself. We teach a knowledge-based curriculum building strong foundations for later learning and opens doors to effective participation and mutual understanding in a global society. We foster a positive, non-punitive school culture where students feel interconnected, emboldened, and secure to take academic risks. We invest profoundly in our faculty by providing ongoing professional training and support and encourage our educators to collaborate closely and push each other to achieve great outcomes to curate this thriving learning community where there is a palpable sense of reciprocal teaching and learning.
