After 20 years of cultivating the Beloved Community for over 400 students and their families each year, we're embarking on a new chapter: The International Community Collaborative. Come with us as we build out a hub where families can learn, live, and thrive together!
For the past 20 years, International Community School has cultivated a Beloved Community. Our school brings together refugee, immigrant and local children in an academically challenging and nurturing environment.
We are growing! In the 2025-26 school year, International Community School is serving 500+ K-5 students from more than 30 countries who speak 25 different languages.
Now, we are ready to do even more!
The International Community Collaborative is the next step in deepening our Beloved Community within the school and extending its reach throughout the surrounding area.
Together, we will strengthen and establish elements that empower our community to learn, live, and thrive.
Our school brings together an eclectic mixture of nationalities, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds seldom seen in U.S. public schools. Each student learns with joy in a warm and welcoming place.
When Congressman John Lewis visited, he said, “If Martin Luther King, Jr. were here, he would be happy to see that his dream of a Beloved Community has come true right here in Dekalb County.”
As our community grows, we have the opportunity to break barriers and build bridges that help everyone thrive by:
Through the International Community Collaborative, we can impact family units, partners, and even the world!
It’s a big vision, and we need everyone – students, families, partners, supporters, and people like you. Find your place in the Beloved Community of ICS today. Let’s reach for new heights and advance to greatness together.
