Campus
Paideia’s 16-acre campus in Druid Hills favors scholarly contemplation, nearness to nature and moments of full-on joy. We’re that enviable combination of in-town, and thus accessible, while our wooded campus separates us from the city’s noise and rush.

The 16 buildings include the original 1509 Building at the corner of Ponce de Leon and Fairview Avenues, and the 1341 Building, a historic Neel Reid — Atlanta’s best-known residential architect of the early 20th century — structure that houses the Half Day program.
Paideia’s 12-acre playing fields, located in Avondale Estates, include two soccer fields and a softball/baseball diamond.
Two years ago, the Junior High moved across Ponce in order to provide expanded and improved spaces for all school use, including dedicated STEAM maker spaces.
We’re grateful to be part of this historic neighborhood where, in the early 1900s, famed architect Frederick Law Olmstead planned a residential community of spacious lots along curvilinear streets, with a linear park and parkway as the centerpiece, taking advantage of already precious real estate — a two-mile stretch of Ponce de Leon Avenue.
Paideia is just a short walk from Olmstead Linear Park, dubbed Atlanta’s urban oasis. In 1975, the park and residential community were added to the National Register of Historic Places.
