The organization offers children AGES five and older an opportunity to learn and grow in a safe and stimulating academic environment in which the CORE subjects of language arts, mathematics, science, technology, social science and world language are bonded to the values of self-worth, respect for one another, one's community, state, and nation. Students, parents, staff and adult community members will each play critical roles in the academy, a total involvement institution. Parental participation, year round learning and cultural experiences will demonstrate to ALL that success, hope and perseverance are habits just as caring, compassion, and fairness are habits. The academy nurtures a total commitment to high academic standards, socially acceptable behavior and the recognition that ALL individuals are created equal and MUST be given an equal educational opportunity.
