Clearwater Academy offers a fresh perspective on education by harnessing the power of the students' goals and directing their education to align with their interests.
All students have individual academic programs enriched by a variety of activities and experiences.
Our mission is to educate each child to his fullest potential and beyond, graduating with eagerness to take his place in the world and contributing to society in his field(s) of endeavor.
One of the distinct differences that parents and students
quickly discover about Clearwater Academy International is its
overall approach to the subject of education and academics.
While the curriculum that a student studies is important there is
another key ingredient to a child`s success at school. The
philosophy at Clearwater Academy is that one of the most important
factors in education is consulting the child`s goals and developing
a program that best matches their interests and skills.At
Clearwater Academy each individual student is our priority.
Students are personally tested upon entering the school in order to
find areas of skill and areas that need improvement. After testing,
every student receives a personally designed program for the grade
that they are entering. Each program contains all of the steps they
need to do to complete that grade. Not only does this happen when a
new student enters the school, but this level of individual
attention occurs every time a student graduates from one grade to
the next.Each student at CAI has their own unique program
which includes all of the core academics as well as emphasis on the
student`s interests. This Goals Oriented approach helps to bring
the subjects alive for the student. If one is just studying math it
can be tedious, however if one is studying math in order to become
a computer engineer it takes on a whole new meaning.Enhancing our
core academic program, we have a system of extracurricular
activities and school sponsored clubs that the student can take
part in, creating a truly well-rounded education.The key to our
success of our unique program is our staff. Due to their extensive
training and application of Study Technology*our staff are
patient and understanding teachers who genuinely want to help and
educate our students.Our students` successes are our
successes.

This is my first review I have ever done, and it is very honest. My two children are attending Clearwater Academy, and they are very happy. The academic program is great, both of my kids are actually retaining what they learn! There's no bullying among students! I highly recommend this school YOU!

Making the decision to put our 2 daughters in this school has been the best decision! Our girls are happy, they love their school, and don't want to leave at the end of the day... that says a lot of a school. Teachers are great, and you can tell they have a genuine care for each of their students. The best part is that my kids are getting the respect they deserve, all while getting high quality education which they can actually apply!
-Happy Parent :)

My daughter has been in Clearwater Academy ever since we moved to the US 5 years ago. She is now 9 years old and I dont see her in any other school. It's like her home. All staff are extremely nice, the whole space and atmosphere of the school is incredible, I dont see any kid fighting with others, My daughter has never been sick and that tells a lot of a school. In this school kids are encouraged to be creative and the amount of artistic related activities is great. No better place for a young kid to start his education.

"School is the basis of life. A good education determines more than you can imagine. I see the students who graduate every year, and I see how competent they are. I have many dreams, and those
dreams being achieved means that I will have to acquire real competence. I believe that I will gain competence and I will most definitely be a great success ."
