Meet the Collective Learning Academy
Each Wednesday in May, the church blog will spotlight one of our on-campus partners (organizations operating from Second-Ponce). This week, we invite you to meet the Collective Learning Academy.

The Collective Learning Academy is a diverse learning community that helps each individual student reach their fullest potential. We believe that students with disabilities have incredible abilities which we celebrate and nurture! Students here flourish, becoming lifelong learners and leaders in their communities. With intensive instruction and encouragement, we prepare students for life beyond school by equipping them to become dynamic and positive contributors in their communities.
Each student’s curriculum is specially tailored to his or her unique needs. All instruction focuses on the four key academic units: English/Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies and Science. Students also receive daily instruction in Adaptive Living, Social/Interpersonal Skills, Communication and Community Based Instruction.
The Collective Learning Academy of Atlanta provides services to students in grades 5-12. We serve communities throughout Metro Atlanta including Buckhead, Brookhaven, Druid Hills, Decatur, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Tucker, Embry Hills.
