DeKalb Early College Academy, a Stone Mountain high school, has been selected as one of 15 model high schools for 2011 by the International Center for Leadership in Education. The chosen schools were invited to share their best practices at the 19th Annual Model Schools Conference held in late June in Nashville.

Model schools are selected annually based on high student achievement  and other best practices.
