FSA also regularly conducts school tours during school hours, where you will get an overview of Quaker education and have an in-depth discussion of the academic program and life of the school community. You will also have an opportunity to meet with students, tour the school and observe in classrooms. Separate tours are offered for Pre-K – 4th grade and 5th – 8th grade families. To learn about tour dates and make a reservation, please visit the home page of FSA’s website: www.friendsschoolatlanta.org.
