The Hope Academy Way details our teaching philosophy. 

Instilling a love of learning is critical to the Hope Academy philosophy.  Our administrators and teachers know and appreciate each student as an individual.  We purposefully find ways to enjoy the process of learning, incorporating movement, conversation, and laughter throughout the school day. 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.  Read more... 

Rather than a group open house, we prefer to invite you to a personal tour of the classrooms.  Please click the link below to email a request for a visit.

 

The Process...

  • We invite you to learn more about Hope Academy with a visit to the school. 
  • We meet with each family prior to registration. 
  • Our teachers will do an assessment for each new student to ensure proper class placement as we do not adhere to birthdate cut-offs for class placement.  We also identify individual learning styles and incorporate them into our teaching style.
  • We will partner with you to help your child reach his or her full potential. 
  • We look forward to meeting you and your child.
