Mission Statement
ICSAtlanta strives to prepare students for a successful future by promoting academic excellence through rigorous instruction that includes multilingualism, cultural awareness, respect, and tolerance for others. We utilize both dual-language and cultural immersion to nurture student curiosity into compassion for others and a commitment to improve our world. Furthermore, we employ student-centered teaching to create actively engaged, lifelong learners.
About This Cause
One size does not fit all! Charter schools offer students an opportunity to learn in a different way, in a different setting, or at a different pace while still being held to the same accountability standards as traditional public schools. Unfortunately, they are not funded the same way as the district schools. With a per pupil allotment of approximately $1200 less per year, charter schools struggle to cover all fixed expenses and have little left over for additional supplies. As a dual language immersion school, teaching materials are not readily available. Common Core texts and supplemental aids must be translated into the target language (French, German, Spanish, Mandarin). Software programs to aid in instruction are available, but yearly fees are not manageable on our tight budget. This year, our basic requests are for daily instructional support materials. All donations are gladly accepted! Thank you for helping us fulfill our mission of preparing students for a successful future by promoting academic excellence through rigorous instruction, bilingualism, the integration of cultural awareness and respect throughout all aspects of the curriculum which will enable students to make the most of their individual talents.
