Coronavirus Impact on FSA

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, The Friends School of Atlanta moved to at-home learning on Friday, March 13, and has restricted access to the campus for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year.  Guided by our mission's emphasis on community, we are enormously grateful to the entire FSA community for the many ways they have come together to support each other and to embrace a new way of teaching and learning.
