Alliance Academy for Innovation

Opening 2018-19 school year

Alliance Academy for Innovation will be Forsyth County Schools' seventh high school. Located on approximately 23 acres in the City of Cumming, the campus is slated to open in August 2018 on Lanier 400 Parkway. The mission of Alliance Academy is to provide pathways for students to own their future in college, career, and life. Career pathways, innovative courses, and personalized learning will be an integral part of Alliance Academy. Students will complete Georgia high school graduation requirements as well as participate in real world experiences in simulated work environments, complete internships, and receive industry certification. We anticipate opening with five-interest themed academies or schools, which include:

School of Aerospace & Logistics

School of Criminal Justice & Law

School of Healthcare & First Responders

School of Hospitality & Design

School of Mechatronics & Energy

Each school will be aligned to a Career and Technical Student Organization (CTSO) including DECA, FRC, HOSA, SkillsUSA, and TSA. Alliance Academy will also offer Advanced Placement courses, Dual Enrollment, Work-Based Learning, and Honors Mentorship opportunities for students.

Alliance Academy will provide an interdisciplinary curriculum with a culture of teamwork, creative thinking, collaboration, and communication. The five-interest themed academies will focus on rigor, relevance, relationships, and readiness. Alliance Academy is an excellent choice for Forsyth County students interested in pursuing their passion in high school. Join us in August 2018 as we embark on a unique, exciting, and innovative journey for students to own their future in college, career, and life.
