Peek Inside our Program

What makes a day at Star Academy special?

Star Academy is a “school-within-a-school.” The program takes 5 pre-existing classrooms on campus and transforms them into a learning space which is aimed to create an environment where students can thrive.

When stepping into a classroom at Star Academy, the differences from a traditional classroom are easily observed. 

  • strategically selected classroom furnishings
  • flexible seating
  • furniture arrangement which promotes collaboration
  • a classroom for each content area of study
  • re-envisioned work spaces
