Tallulah Falls School is a co-ed, college preparatory boarding and day school for students in grades 6-12. Since our founding in 1909, TFS has been uniquely committed to the individual success of students both academically and personally. Our dedicated and highly qualified faculty, outstanding facilities, challenging curriculum, small classes, and motivated students form the foundation for our academic community. The generosity of our owners, the Georgia Federation of Women's Clubs, and other supporters allow us to keep our tuition rates lower than many similar schools. We offer both academic merit scholarships and generous need-based financial aid.
