Timeless Teachings in a Changing World
The Maven Academy offers a unique and individualized academic program to students from public, private and homeschooled backgrounds. The classroom functions as an interactive, discussion and project-based setting.
Students earn grades and credits based on mastery of content which prepares them for the next level of learning. Upon enrolling into The Maven Academy, a collaborative meeting is scheduled with both the student and his/her parents in order to establish personal, academic and career goals which will be reviewed yearly. In addition, each students' academic progress is monitored daily to identify and address any problems or challenges immediately. The academic track the student follows, will determine which credits and classes they take.
