The mission of Center Academy is to provide students with a learning environment that facilitates the development of self-confidence, motivation, and academic skills, and gives students the opportunity to achieve success in life.
It is often difficult for a child to maintain self-esteem when his/her learning requirements differ from other students in school.
Therefore, we offer a highly structured educational program in an atmosphere that is familiar, understanding, nurturing, and supportive.
Center Academy helps students with average to above average intelligence who "fall through the cracks" in school, or who need special help with organization, motivation, and/or social skills.

Putting our daughter in Center Academy was the best decision for our family. She was struggling in middle school both academically and socially. It is a night and day difference here. Academically, she is thriving and getting all the extra help and attention she needs. Center Academy is positive and uplifting and the kids treat each other with respect and genuinely like each other and get along. Since there is no homework assigned there are no more nightly fights over getting homework done. Ms. Cain, Ms. S, Michelle and Mr. Kaser are great at communicating and treat you more like family. We highly recommend the school and grateful that our daughter has found a place that is perfect for her.

My Grand daughter is in her 2nd year at Center Academy.. she enrolled there in 8th grade. I had been at witts end with the schools here in Florida and California. She struggled with learning; I knew she could fo it her scores were above average which placed her in Advanced classes with an I EP. I was losing her, her self her zest for school. She stuggled no matter what I tried. .Her first year at Center Acadmy her whole demenor changed.She began to love school again. Her depression slowly faded, and her anxiety disappeared. Mr K is an amazing man and a wonderful kind princable. In 2 years I have yet to see him raise his voice or loose his paintce with the students.He has the respect of evey student at this school. We love Mr K. This leads me to the staff Mrs Tazer is a God sent just an amazing woman. Words can express the appreciation we have for her. The Teachers Mrs Cane and Mrs S are spinkled with angel dust. My grand daughter has had staight A's and B's since these teachers have had her. I dont know how they do it .My grand daughter loves to go to school she feels so smart and self confidence is back. She knows she can do it now. God what a difference in my grand daughter. I could never repay Center Acadamy for giving me back my beautiful grand daughter.And they do this in the class rooms the teachers teach and the children are not afaird to ask questions. They do not beleive in giving the children home work. They have strong beleives in family values.This place is AMAZING.. 0 bullying policy I drop my grand daughter off evey morning knowing she will be safe. What an amzing feeling. Words can not express the graditude and appection I have for Mr K Mrs Tazor Mrs Cane and Mrs S and all the students for giving my grand daughter an amzing and strss free education.

I enrolled my son at Center Academy Cape Coral this past October. It's truly the best thing I could have done for him. This school focuses on children with their own unique learning skills. As well as showing them to embrace these skills and to be proud of what they can accomplish. They teach the students to be kind to one another and understand that no two people are the same and that we all come from different walks of life. Most importantly, it's very clear to see the dedication and love that Mr. Kaser, Mrs. Dazer and the teachers as well have not only for their jobs but also their students as well. My son is a new kid since starting here, and it's an honor to have such an amazing staff be part of his educational journey.

I truly love this school! My daughter went from having low Ds & Fs to always feeling like even though she was doing the work no one heard her to almost straight A's. She is heard and the principal and staff is truly terrific. They go above and beyond for the students absolutely so glad we went with this school !!

Center Academy has been life-changing. Our sweet boy, who has the kindest, biggest heart, struggled his entire school career until God led us to CA. I cannot begin to express the gratitude we have for Mr. Kaser and the team. The love that man has for his students is indescribable. This school is literally our answer to prayer.
