STEAM and Career Pathways Open Doors to Bright Futures at North Springs High School
NSHS is the only STEAM high school in Fulton County Schools and offers the only Accelerated Career Diploma program in North County.

All Fulton County Schools students are invited to discover how North Springs’ STEAM Magnet and Accelerated Career Diploma (ACD) programs open doors to exciting futures. All North Springs students engage in creative, collaborative, and critical thinking experiences through integrated, innovative learning in science, technology, engineering, the arts, and math.
The STEAM Magnet Program is designed for students who are passionate about exploring science, technology, creativity, and design. Students participate in project-based learning, interdisciplinary coursework, and opportunities to apply their knowledge through research, competitions, and hands-on experiences. The program empowers students to think critically, collaborate effectively, and approach challenges with curiosity and confidence—skills that prepare them for success in college and beyond.
The Accelerated Career Diploma (ACD) program offers motivated students the opportunity to earn both a high school diploma and industry-recognized credentials in two high-demand career pathways, such as cybersecurity, technology, and skilled trades. Through coursework, hands-on training, and partnerships with local employers, students gain real-world experience that prepares them to enter the workforce immediately after graduation. Or they may prepare to continue their education at a college or technical school and earn both a STEAM Magnet certification as well as their career credentials. ACD students receive transportation from their home school to North Springs and from North Springs to the partner technical college.
