Frequently Asked Questions — Dunwoody Families

Our campus is in Roswell, Fulton County — not in Dunwoody or DeKalb County. We are always upfront about this. Dunwoody families traveling north on GA-400 through Sandy Springs reach our Roswell campus in approximately 30 to 40 minutes. For parents whose jobs already take them in that direction each morning, the drop-off is a natural fit. For families commuting south into Atlanta, the distance requires more honest evaluation before enrolling.

Yes. We hold an active license from Bright from the Start: Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning, covering all classrooms and age group programs at our campus. That license requires regular state inspections, verified teacher-to-child ratios, background-checked staff, and documented professional development throughout the program year. Dunwoody families can view our licensing records on request during any campus tour.

We enroll children from 6 weeks through Pre-K age — up to 5 years old. Programs include our infant care room, toddler classrooms, preschool, and Georgia Pre-K for eligible four-year-olds. Each age group operates in a dedicated classroom with its own trained teachers and a developmentally appropriate daily schedule and curriculum.

Tuition is based on age group and schedule type — full-time and part-time options are both available. Georgia Pre-K is fully tuition-free for qualifying four-year-olds. We walk every family through pricing clearly during the enrollment conversation with no hidden fees. For current rates, call 470-282-1521 or book a tour and speak with our enrollment coordinator directly.

Start with a free campus tour — it takes about 45 minutes and covers everything: classrooms, the daily schedule, teacher introductions, program details, and registration paperwork. Our enrollment coordinator will answer every question on the spot. If you prefer to speak with someone before scheduling, call 470-282-1521 and we will walk you through the program over the phone first.

Yes. Georgia Pre-K eligibility is based on age and Georgia residency — not the county a child lives in. Dunwoody four-year-olds who qualify are welcome in our Georgia Pre-K program, which is entirely tuition-free for eligible children. Pre-K seats are limited and fill early in the program year, so DeKalb County families should contact us as soon as possible to check availability for the upcoming school year.

For Dunwoody families commuting north toward Sandy Springs, Roswell, or Alpharetta, the drop-off adds very little to the morning. For families commuting south toward Buckhead, Midtown, or downtown Atlanta, the drive requires a more careful look at daily logistics. We encourage every Dunwoody family to do a real trial commute on a weekday morning before committing. We will always give you an honest answer about whether the drive is practical for your specific situation — that kind of transparency matters more to us than filling a spot.
