Hope Academy

Hope Academy, founded in 1997, promotes inclusion in an alternative to traditional educational programs.
Our mission is to provide each student with academic challenges while insuring personal success.
Classes are small with extra staffing. This model allows us to foster knowledge, character development, and social responsibility.
At Hope Academy, our students love to learn­ and learn to live.
We carefully provide a nurturing environment in which children learn for understanding rather than for test taking.
We emphasize the goal of fluency instead of focusing on a grade.
Our faculty takes the time to develop strategies that emphasize each child's individual skills and natural aptitudes.
