Gifted Atlanta

This fall, the doors will open at Midtown International School, a private school geared toward gifted, high-achieving, and twice-exceptional children.

The school’s curriculum will emphasize integrated learning, STEM and global perspective — including foreign language. Class sizes will be small, with only 12 students per grade level.

The school is now completing construction on its building on Amsterdam Avenue, in the Piedmont Park area of Midtown.

In 2013-14, the school will serve kindergarten through fifth grades, expanding later to include middle-school grades.

Separate from enrollment in the school, MIS will host four weeks of summer camps in July for rising 1st-5th graders, in topics from horticulture to art.
