What Atlanta Jewish Academy Inc does
Mission
Atlanta jewish academy is a college preparatory, co-educational, preschool-12th grade, independent jewish day school, guided by modern orthodox values and principles. We embody the ideals of community, tradition, individual development and educational innovation. Atlanta jewish academy develops the whole person for college and life by fostering a love of torah, israel and all jewish people through an excellent secular and judaic education within an inclusive, nuturing community.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Our educational offerings include general studies, a rigorous curriculum which includes language arts, mathematics, science and social studies. Critical thinking, intellectual curiosity and a love of learning are major objectives. Our children are challenged to achieve their potential and then go further. The judaic teachings and practices of our school adhere to a traditional interpretation of laws and customs. We teach the classical jewish in their original languages, inspiring our students and grounding them in morals and ethics. The historical and religious importance of the state of israel is central to our teaching, programs and philosophy. Our students develop a strong connection to israel and its people. They understand and converse in the modern hebrew language. We believe that the ideals and democratic principles of the united states of america are fundamental to our lives as american jews.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $18M to $22M (+21%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2022 10% · 2023 6%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
33% of ATLANTA JEWISH ACADEMY INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (23% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 11 funders to 16 funders, grant income rose $622k → $1.4M.

From the IRS filings of ATLANTA JEWISH ACADEMY INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 36 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
ATLANTA JEWISH ACADEMY INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 74% of grant income and the top three 85%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
92% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund ATLANTA JEWISH ACADEMY INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 70% · 2018 36% · 2019 66% · 2020 81% · 2021 87% · 2022 76% · 2023 82% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
42% of ATLANTA JEWISH ACADEMY INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 69% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
91% of ATLANTA JEWISH ACADEMY INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $917k that is directly attributable, 65% of it comes from Georgia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $9.8M arriving through sponsors registered in 9 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
