Our Story
Driven by Growth
Our Journey
In 2020, our current Founding Principal, Kolt Bloxson, met with a group of friends, past colleagues, business professionals and community advocates with a dream. Her dream was to do school differently. Her dream was to provide parents with a choice of an educational journey for their children, based on their unique needs.
She believes in providing an education that allows scholars to reach their full potential, apply their education to improving their local and global communities and prepare them to be miles ahead of what they ever thought possible. Her dream planted the seed. The Board nurtured this seed into fruition, bringing forth Miles Ahead Charter School to families across Georgia with doors opening in August 2023.
