Exciting Addition to Heron Bay Golf and Country Club

Heron Bay Golf and Country Club is proud to be a leading community in the Atlanta metropolitan area. They have always prided themselves on the masterly planned community and the superior amenities of Heron Bay.

Heron Bay hopes to continue to advance the community by opening Heron Bay Academy in the fall of 2010. Located within the Heron Bay Development this charter school will be similar to a public school in that it is tuition free, however the charter school will provide students with advanced learning opportunities that traditional public schools cannot provide. For instance, Heron Bay Academy features a rigorous educational program that combines core fundamentals with the arts. Students will begin learning a foreign language, music and art in Kindergarten.

Unlike their peers in public school, Heron Bay students will receive more one-on-one attention due to the smaller class sizes and use of advanced technology such as smart boards. Also, in early grades students will have a looping option not seen in public school whereby the student stays with the same teach for two to three years.

When the school opens 400 kids in grades K through six will be able to attend the school. They are so excited about this opportunity for their Atlanta golf community and look forward to opening Heron Bay Academy.
