School Notes

The Academy serves determined young women in grades 9-12 and post-graduate who seek to expand their horizons, reach higher standards, and place importance on their future place in society. As a part of the Brenau University system, our students have the opportunity to participate in college courses, lectures, artists&apos&apos series, and events that no other traditional school can offer.
With our place on the historic campus of Brenau University, the Academy has close proximity with the North Georgia Mountains and the small-town feel of Gainesville, Georgia. The city of Atlanta, only forty-five minutes away, offers opportunities for field trips, plays, and exhibits that can enhance cultural understanding and broaden a world-view.
