Focus Academy:

Groundbreaking, Innovative and Highly Successful

No other school incorporates therapy into the curriculum and the school day the way that Focus Academy does. Our innovative program infuses drama therapy based social emotional learning opportunities and self care concepts into our academic curriculum that is creative yet undeniably challenging. We have the flexibility to adjust to student needs as they change and grow. Our full-time mental health team along with our academic team work collaboratively to provide not only support but proactive training for students to give them the tools for increased independence and self esteem.

Transition Program

Opportunities to continue to work on these all important life skills are infused into all learning, training and internship opportunities

A Better Start for a Brighter Tomorrow

Focus Academy relies on the latest educational research related to how adolescents and young adults learn best, in determining optimal student scheduling. As a result, our school day begins at 8:45 a.m. and ends at 3:45 p.m. Brain breaks are incorporated throughout the day.
An emphasis on moving toward independence is a fundamental objective of the Focus Academy program and begins on the very first day of school. Students learn strategies for self-advocacy and build self esteem through mastering these skills. This enables students to move seamlessly into Focus Academy’s Transition Program.
