Attendance zone

Zones are drawn by Atlanta Public Schools, so a neighborhood name or mailing address does not settle which school a home is zoned for. Check the address with the APS School Zone Locator; the district’s zone map for John Lewis Invictus Academy shows the school’s boundary.

John Lewis Invictus Academy draws from Boyd Elementary, Stanton Elementary, Harper-Archer Elementary, Scott Elementary, Usher-Collier Heights Elementary and KIPP Woodson Park Academy, and its students go on to Douglass High, according to the district’s feeder pattern list.

In December 2025 the Atlanta Board of Education approved Phase 1 of APS Forward 2040, the district’s long-range facilities plan, which closes six schools in fall 2027, according to the district. In this cluster, Stanton Elementary is among the schools the plan affects. The district says the zone work will move the F.L. Stanton Elementary zone from the Douglass feeder pattern into the Washington pattern for middle and high school. APS has not yet adopted the new zones: draft maps are on the APS Forward 2040 page and a board vote is planned for Monday, Dec. 7. We found no approved rezoning that changes John Lewis Invictus Academy’s own zone so far.
