Academics & Activities

Curriculum

The Academy’s K-8 curriculum is aligned to the CCSS. The academy’s curriculum focuses on the core content areas in ELA, math, science, and social studies. We utilize the Curriculum Crafter 3.0 Tool (CCT) to create a comprehensive scope and sequence, as well as rigorous units and lessons for all K-8 units of study.

Support Programs

The Special Education Department works as a team consisting of special education teachers, speech pathologists, paraprofessionals, a school social worker, a school psychologist, and an occupational therapist to coordinate and provide services for students.
The full inclusion model is emphasized with students who have IEPs.
