BUILDING A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR A BRIGHTER FUTURE
It’s our goal to empower our students and community to create a brighter future. At Paideia Academies, we provide a community that supports families in developing the whole child – body, mind, heart, spirit – to achieve success in college, career, citizenship, and family life.
Our mission is found within our name. Paideia (py-dee-uh) is inspired from the Greek word pais, paidos: the upbringing of the whole child. We create a solid foundation for young scholars and provide a well-rounded, educational experience that addresses the specific needs of each child. Students are also challenged to think critically and to identify ways they want to make a difference in the world, using their unique talents and skillsets.
K-12 LEARNING AT ITS BEST
In our commitment to give your child a high-quality education, we put together sound, proven curriculum programs that combine classical learning with the best of innovative technology, ingenuity, and methodology. At Paideia Academy, your child will have access to the best education across all disciplines.
Students will gain a deep understanding of core educational study areas in mathematics, the sciences, language arts, and social studies. They will also develop the ability to think independently, reason, and communicate clearly to best prepare them for their future. At Paideia Academy, your child will have instilled within them the values, leadership skills, critical thinking skills, and character to equip them for success.
Preparing a child to think, learn, make decisions, and understand the world around them will prepare them to thrive in college, careers, families, communities – and in life.
