Learning Academy's goal is to provide an alternative to parents that prefer the traditional, time tested methods of education for their children.
We offer a well rounded academic program that includes subjects such as reading, mathematics, science, history, spelling, geography, language arts, social studies, penmanship and music/art.
We believe that through a partnership between parents and school, our children can learn the skills necessary for a life time of learning as well as responsible, patriotic citizenship.
