Education Programs For Grades K-12th:
We provide a hands-on, active learning approach that is easily adapted to each individual's learning requirements. We use curriculum and supplements from State of Florida-recognized textbooks. Each student takes 7 academic subjects every year.
Our objective is for student to gain the skills necessary to graduate and go on to college or work. Specific courses parallel the State of Florida’s requirement for graduation.
Grading System: Progress reports are issued every mid-marking period, and are also given at report time for any grades below “C”. They are mailed home each quarter. The quarter grade for each subject is determined by averaging grades (Based on the student’s progress in performing on functioning level):
The school grading scale is: A…90 – 100%; B…80 – 89%; C…70 – 79%; D…60 – 69%; F…00 – 59%; S… Satisfactory (Elementary- some subjects); N… Needs Improvement (Elementary- some subjects) and I… Incomplete.
Grades “A-F” are assigned on the basis of individual academic progress. Incomplete grades may be issued to students whose work is not complete because of absences or other extenuating circumstances. Incomplete grades “I” must be made up by the next grading period. Grades can be improved by extra work assignments successfully completed within 3 weeks after the grading period.
Additionally: We provide a summer school and tutoring.
