    Hello and welcome to the North Springs High School Website. Please take some time to explore the magnet page of our website (located under the Academics tab) for specifics about the NSHS Magnet program. There you will find information detailing to a sample 4 year plan, an informational power point, a fact sheet, and Visual & Performing Arts audition requirements.

    A few reminders about magnet eligibility, a student must reside at a Fulton County Schools address or be zoned for a Fulton County School. Unfortunately, students residing in APS district (while still Fulton County) are not eligible for program admission. If you live outside of FCS district you can apply if you will be living within FCS district by the beginning of the 2023-2024 school year. Proof of residency is required as part of the enrollment process.
