About DeKalb Brilliance Academy (https://dekalbbrilliance.org/) : Designed with input from nearly 1,000 South DeKalb community members, DeKalb Brilliance Academy is a tuition-free, public K–8 charter school committed to building a fundamentally different kind of education. We currently serve grades K–6 and will add one grade per year (learn more about our founding journey here (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1F6qF-PjdfDiPFCKBYdub0sXrdkaUk2sfKWYNWKFPbXM/edit?usp=sharing) ).

Our vision is that each child will know and leverage their unique brilliance to critically analyze the world around them and to design a better and more equitable future. We pursue this vision through our Real-world Project-based Learning, where students learn not only from their teachers and peers, but also directly from scientists, lawyers, engineers, and designers. Our model is ambitious by design—and built to challenge the status quo in service of our students and community.
