The Epstein School

What The Epstein School does

The Epstein School is a private, non-profit Jewish day school founded in 1973 and located at 335 Colewood Way NW, Sandy Springs, Georgia (Atlanta metropolitan area). It serves families seeking a Jewish values-anchored education from infancy through 8th grade, operating three academic divisions: an Early Childhood Program (Infants through Pre-K), an Elementary School (Kindergarten through 4th Grade), and a Middle School (5th through 8th Grade). The school employs approximately 148 staff and is governed by a Board of Trustees; it celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2023. Its core academic offering is integrated with specialized programs including Joyful Judaism (Jewish education), an Innovation Program and Learning Lab (experiential learning), Arts, Athletics (Epstein Eagles, with over 85% participation among grades 6-8), Counseling, and the Goldstein Media Center. Extended-service revenue lines include Eagle Express (before/after-school care and transportation), After School Programs, and the ESA Summer Camp. The school also maintains an active Alumni Association, an Epstein PTO, and a multi-channel giving program (Annual Giving, Endowment, Georgia Tax Credit Program, Legacy Giving, Brick Garden, Tributes).

The Epstein School's revenue model is tuition-based, supplemented by financial assistance through the Access EPSTEIN program and a diversified fundraising stack. Specific tuition pricing is not publicly disclosed on its public website; pricing information is gated behind a dedicated tuition page. Distribution is direct-to-family: prospective families apply through the school's website, schedule campus visits, and engage directly with admissions staff, with the school emphasizing in-person campus visits as the primary enrollment channel. Marketing channels include a Veracross-powered Parent Portal (accounts.veracross.com/eps/portals/login), an active Facebook presence (facebook.com/epsteinschool), and an Instagram account (@epstein_atl) using the #ExperienceEpstein hashtag. The school's only disclosed external partnership of strategic significance is with the Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta, evidenced by Federation branding on the school's website, situating Epstein within the broader Atlanta Jewish institutional ecosystem.

The school's underlying technology footprint is light and administrative rather than product-innovative. Core technology consists of the Veracross student information system for parent portal, grades, and school communications. "Proprietary features" are framed as physical/curricular assets (Learning Lab, Goldstein Media Center) rather than software platforms. The firm is privately held and structured as a non-profit organization; there is no parent company, no subsidiaries, no funding rounds, and no M&A activity disclosed. No patents, trademarks, regulatory actions, or AI/ML modalities are disclosed in the available data.
