ATLANTA, Ga. â Innovation Academy in downtown Alpharetta will open in August with every available seat filled, and a host of others on a wait list in the event of a vacancy. The North Fulton regionâs newest high school will enroll just over 900 students in grades nine and 10 in its inaugural class, with 150 students on a wait list. All were selected through a lottery. In two years, the school will be at full capacity in grades nine through 12. âItâs hard to believe that just a few short years ago this was just an idea up in the clouds,â said Principal Tim Duncan. âItâs been quite a pleasure to be entrusted with such an amazing project that is going to benefit so many.ââ
