Is an academy right for your student?

Academy students will be immersed in four years of core and elective classes that are aligned to the Academy’s career theme.  Therefore, students should have a genuine interest in deeply exploring the career pathway to which they apply.  Project-based learning is a keystone of the Academy experience, so students will need to be able to confidently manage their time and effectively communicate with teachers and classmates.
