Our Vision
To see earth look more like heaven in English Avenue and on the historic westside of Atlanta.
Our Mission
Peace Preparatory Academy seeks to be a place that educates the whole child, supports the whole family, and provides growth and change opportunities for the whole community in a high quality, Christ-centered learning environment.
Our Commitment
Peace Preparatory Academy seeks to be the embodiment of the hopes and dreams for our neighbors and our communities, specifically related to the educational options that exist. We firmly believe that a school can be a place of transformation, not only for its students, but also for the families it serves, and the communities it will surely have an impact on. This is evidenced in our core commitments to the whole child, the whole family, and the whole community. Our mission will transcend beyond what traditional schools have offered by way of instruction and support as we seek to create programs and practices that reflect where our communities have been, where they are today, and where they can be tomorrow with a well-equipped group of young leaders poised to face new challenges.
Our commitment to the following pillars will strengthen our role to go beyond education and into true and lasting transformation:
Developmentally Appropriate. We believe student learning is the access to the information and skills required to navigate and participate in the larger world. Academic progression through different ages and stages is supported by committed teachers and staff.
Culturally Relevant. We believe students should love who they are and where they are from. Our language, our celebrations, and our character reflect the English Avenue community and Atlanta’s Westside.
Spiritually Formative. We believe in cultivating Christlikeness. Justice, service, loving relationships, and a peaceful presence are embodied in our interactions with our students, families, and communities.
Trauma Informed. We believe every person bears the image of God and has innate value. Through a healing centered approach to education, we honor all children and families through genuine care, respect, and support.
