First Academy develops within its students the foundation of intellectual and personal skills for a successful future in education and in life. Independent and productive lives are built, in the firm belief that such lives are the basis of a free and just society. Our mission is to cooperate with parents, teachers, and the community in order to nurture, educate, and empower every student to realize their full potential regardless of their race, ethnicity or socioeconomic background.
We are committed to nurturing the “whole student” in a safe environment that promotes their uniqueness and curiosities. We place an enormous emphasis on developing our student’s personal skills, morals, and cognition through positive interactions, a tailored curriculum, and weekly assessments. We encourage our students with patience and affirmation to become responsible and critical thinkers to make decisions based on morals and reasoning. We encourage and expect our parents and families to be involved in their child’s education and reinforce what is being learned at First Academy as homework. You are your child’s first and most effective teacher, together we can create the best possible outcome for our children.. Building a homework routine at home is essential for your child’s First Academy also invests in the surrounding community and support local businesses to help create the best possible “environment” for children to prosper. Children are a product of their environment and we want to enable them to explore their neighborhood safely and create positive experiences through community events and enrichment programs within our community. Through communication, collaboration, and cooperation between teachers, families, and the community we believe we can create an environment that promotes learning and positive experiences that they will carry throughout their lives.
