Hello SAE Families,
We wanted to extend a sincere thank you for your invaluable support during our recent K-8 Field Day (Dragon Games). Thankfully the weather held long enough to continue with the day as planned.
Your enthusiasm, dedication, and willingness to pitch in made the event a tremendous success. From Coach Lartey and staff organizing the activities, to parent volunteers working various stations, your efforts truly made a difference and created lasting memories for our students.
To ALL SAE families, we recognize that your time and energy are precious, and we are deeply grateful for your commitment to our school community. Your contributions have not only enhanced the experience for our students, but also exemplified the spirit of teamwork and collaboration that defines The SAE School. This holds true for our entire program, preschool and K-8.
Once again, thank you for your unwavering support. We look forward to future opportunities to work together and continue creating meaningful experiences for our students.
As a reminder, we have just three days of school left for the 23-24 academic year. There will be several ceremonies taking place next week, so please be sure to scroll down the entire page to stay informed.

As many of you may have seen in the news this week, Georgia just passed a School Choice Voucher program. If you receive this email, then you understand the importance of School Choice, and we couldn’t be more thrilled that this is occurring. When we started the school, being an affordable based private school was always one of our main priorities and this will assist our families even more. Starting in the 2025-2026 school year, eligible students will receive a $6,500 educational savings account that would essentially cut the tuition in half at SAE. I will be listing below what we know about the program thus far as there will be many updates prior to this being released. If you have any questions please feel free to email me and I will let you know.
-- When does this start? The 2025-2026 School Year.
-- Does SAE qualify as a school that can accept these funds? Yes. Private schools must be accredited, and we are by multiple organizations.
-- How much money is applied per child to my tuition? $6,500 per child per school year
-- Who is eligible? The student’s of parents have been a Georgia resident for at least one year and are zoned for a public school that has performed in the lowest 25% of all public schools as determined by the Office of Student Achievement. Students entering Kindergarten who live in such a school zone are exempt from the attendance requirement. All other students may be enrolled in a public school for 1 year prior to being eligible.
-- What schools are considered in the lowest 25%? We have an initial list of these schools, but these will be updated as this program gets closer to launching. However, it should be noted that there are public schools in the Mableton community that meet this threshold for eligibility. If you live outside of Mableton please feel free to reach out to me (scott.starowicz@saeschool.org) with the school that you are zoned for.
-- Who gets priority for these funds? Priority is given to those students whose parents earn 400% or less of the federal poverty level. An example of this would be a family of 4 would need to make $120,000 or less. In addition, please remember this is just a priority, it doesn’t mean that those who make over this amount are ineligible.
-- Can I combine this with my Georgia Goal or SB 10 Scholarship that I currently receive? No
For additional questions, reach to out to Scott Starowicz.
