Earlier intervention and intensive academics put students on the road to independence and future success.

Transition programs, our Middle School program will focus on intensive
reading.

High School | Grades 9-12

Focus Academy provides students with a comprehensive academic and social experience. Curriculum at Focus Academy is structured with the primary goals of academic achievement and social success. Rigorous academics are a key component to our learning environment. Focus Academy students work towards a Standard Diploma via an Access Points curriculum.

Transition Program | Ages 19-22

Community partnering for a brighter future.
The mission of the Focus Academy Transition Program is to prepare each student for the most independent and satisfying adult life possible. This program builds on the philosophical approach of our High School program in that transition, life and employability skills training are combined with a continued and expanded focus on independent
functioning skills, social competency, and social connection. Opportunities to continue to work on these all important life skills needed
for future independence.
