AlphA
Academy is a public charter school designed to bring your child
an atmosphere where the normal pressures of their
peers are minimized. AlphA Academy's curriculum
is centered around the actual "NEEDS" of your
child by working in smaller groups and providing the ability of the "one on
one" training so desperately needed in today's every-changing world.
The development of your
child also depends on the parents' involvement as a participant and role
model. Therefore, our direction of teaching not only follows the Charter
Schools Act which focuses on standard policies and procedures,
but the voice of the community.
If you have a child in
our school, would like to enroll your child in our school and you are
interested in becoming a member or participant in our PTF (Parent Task Force) please contact us and let us know. The
continued success of Alpha Academy is contingent upon the success of our
students where we will remain among the leaders of our community.
