This is the official page of Sandy Springs Mission in Sandy Springs, Georgia. Like us to stay updated on events and celebrate our achievements with us!

The Sandy Springs Mission provides academic enrichment programs for at-risk students attending Lake Forest & High Point Elementary, Ridgeview Middle and Riverwood High schools. A 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, the Mission is dedicated to helping and inspiring at-risk* students. WE CONSIDER THEM AT-RISK IF THE STUDENT COMES FROM A HOME WHERE:

English is not spoken as the primary language;
Th

e parents are not able to help their children with schoolwork because of their own low-level of education;
The parents cannot pay for the extra help necessary for their child to succeed in school. To date, we’ve celebrated the graduations of 64 Mission students – most the first in their families to attain a diploma. The Mission is changing and enhancing the lives of its students in many ways. Our children face staggeringly negative statistics when it comes to education. Graduation rates for Hispanic students hover in the 50-60% range. However, the Mission’s student graduation rate is closer to 90%. Working with our amazing volunteers, the kids truly find new confidence in themselves and see their grades progressively improve. Our volunteers inspire a ‘yes-I-can’ attitude in the kids and give them tools to succeed. That confidence and attitude instills a great sense of hope in the future.

BOOSTing Our Mission Forward:

Exciting news! We’ve received the GA Department of Education’s BOOST grant to help us expand, improve, and make our after-school and summer academic enrichment programs more accessible than ever. This is a huge step forward in our mission to transform youth and English Language Learning families in our community.

Our story began in 1999 when the number of Latino immigrants moving into Sandy Springs significantly increased.
These families endured many challenges like learning English, a lack of job opportunities, and
low education. A group of thoughtful neighbors and members of Mt. Vernon Baptist Church saw a need in our community, formed the Sandy Springs Mission, and began lending support to these families.
Originally, The Mission provided financial assistance to meet urgent needs. Over time, the focus shifted to education: improving high school graduation rates, advancing English language skills, and providing access to higher education for English Language Learners.
In our early years, we partnered with one elementary school to provide after school academic enrichment programs to 12 English learners. Now, in our 25th year, we are honored to positively impact more than 425 students annually through partnerships with six elementary, middle, and high schools in Fulton County and two local colleges. Together, we are investing in the future of our community, one student at a time.

This year, we’re celebrating 25 years of transforming generations of English Language Learning families! From humble beginnings to a thriving community impact, Sandy Springs Mission is deeply grateful to our generous supporters who have invested in the future of our community- one student at a time.

🌍✈️ Summer Camp Adventure! ✈️🌍
After three unforgettable weeks, our “Around the World” Summer Camp is almost coming to an end!

Elementary and middle school language learners explored Europe, Asia, and beyond - creating passports, diving into hands-on activities, hearing new stories, and discovering different cultures. We even had a real flight attendant join us to share about international travel! 🌎✨

This camp was more than just fun - it blended creativity, academic enrichment, and global learning in a supportive, engaging environment. We’re so proud of our campers for their engagement, courage, and growth.

Thank you to every student, volunteer, and parent who made this journey possible! 💫📚✈️
