Welcome to
Schoolhouse Academy

An Innovative Private School


 

IS YOUR CHILD READY FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT?

 

Many families choose Schoolhouse Academy because they’re looking for more than what traditional schools offer — greater academic challenge, targeted support, and a personalized approach.

 

At Schoolhouse Academy, we understand that every child learns differently, and we teach in ways that respect that. Here, learning is never one-size-fits-all. Our mastery-based, hands-on model allows students to progress at the pace and depth that’s right for them — whether they’re ready to move ahead, need focused guidance, or simply flourish in an environment where their curiosity is encouraged.

 

Project-based learning is woven throughout the day, with a rich focus on STEM and the Arts. Students actively explore concepts, create, collaborate, and think critically rather than passively receive information. In small classes led by subject-expert teachers, instruction is thoughtfully personalized, helping each child build confidence, develop a genuine love of learning, and achieve lasting academic success.
