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 Long Middle shows the school’s boundary.

Long Middle draws from Cleveland Avenue Elementary, Dobbs Elementary, Heritage Academy, Humphries Elementary and Hutchinson Elementary, and its students go on to South Atlanta 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, Cleveland Avenue Elementary is among the schools the plan affects. 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 Long Middle’s own zone so far.
