DeKalb Brilliance Academy is a free public charter school located in Decatur, GA, currently serving students in Kindergarten through 4th grade. While the school is not explicitly labeled as a special education school in its primary title, its academic programs explicitly support Special Education, Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), and Special Needs Support.
