Teachers Hand's Academy

9580 Curry Ford Rd, Orlando, FL, 32825-0328
Teacher's Hands is a private Christian school dedicated to educating Orlando's children while providing a rich spiritual foundation in Biblical truth. We have unique programs for gifted and advanced students as well as those with learning disabilities. Students who are ready are challenged with online learning and dual enrollment, while the ones who are struggling receive small group and one-on-one instruction to bolster their reading and math skills. At THA no child is overlooked or lost in the shuffle. Each student is assessed regularly to re-evaluate placement and the need for specialized services.
