Student Success is Possible
Star Academy is an all-inclusive “school-within-a-school” intervention program that educates and elevates students (typically 7th-9th grades) who have failed one or more grades. The expert-built program pairs hands-on learning experiences with social-emotionally-based teaching methods, resulting in many students earning up to two grade-level promotions in one year.
