The SAE School is an independent school which opened in August, 2013 in the Northwest metro Atlanta area.  We will offer preschool (infants - 4 year olds) - 8th grade in our sixth year (2018-2019) and have 40+ staff to include teachers, support staff and administrators.

We have a culture of 100%.  We expect that 100% of our students will graduate from high school, go on to attend and graduate from college.  Anything less will be viewed as a failure on our part.

We are a unique school. We do things differently.  Work Hard and Have Fun. This describes our school culture.   We have extremely high expectations for our kids and even higher for our staff.  

We expect staff to :

- go above and beyond for our kids without fail

- support your colleagues

- arrive on time for your work day

- communicate with parents continuously

 - work after hours and on weekends when necessary 

- control and manage our students at all times

- be creative

- provide solutions to problems/challenges

- enjoy our work environment and implement ways to make it better each day

 - have fun with your students and colleagues
