Briarlake Elementary School is located in Decatur, DeKalb County, Georgia. Briarlake has been educating the children in our community for over 50 years. We have Pre-K - 5th grades as well as the
deaf and hard of hearing program. Briarlake is a 2002 Georgia School of Excellence and has
been awarded the 2003 Parent Involvement School of Excellence by the National PTA.
Briarlake is a small neighborhood school with a wonderful staff supported by our parents and the
community. Our PTA organizes events and activities throughout the year. We hope all of our families will find ways
to be involved and participate.
