Our School

Overview

Chesnut Charter School was established in 1968 to meet the needs of the Peachtree/Dunwoody community. It is located just outside Interstate 285, and next door to Peachtree Charter Middle School. In the 2000-2001 school year, Chesnut began operating as a Charter School with an emphasis on basic skills. Curriculum will be enhanced with technological additions and improvements. Our charter gives Chesnut the flexibility to challenge and develop each student to his/her full potential.

Mission Statement

At Chesnut Charter School, we commit ourselves to educating the whole child - developing young people who are enthusiastic, knowledgeable, well-rounded, physically active, and thoughtful. Chesnut students will become honorable and contributing citizens, who are internally motivated to achieve their highest potential.
