Some of our former international students have come from Thailand, China, Tiawan and the Philippines. International students with language barriers strive at Palmettto Academy because of our small classroom size. We truly understand that your child might struggle and might have difficulties with the traditional classrooms, making them feel frustrated and leading them to not believe in themselves. At our academy, our fully trained staff strives to enrich the lives of all of our students in making them feel loved and important. Our goal is to show your child how to discover his or her inner strengths and creativity through our learning programs and care. Since our classes are small, our teachers have the capability to work with your child on a one-on-one basis, providing personal attention that always leads to great academic success. An accommodated curriculum is also provided for students with learning disabilities. Palmetto Academy's high school curriculum offers both general and college prep courses.
