Elementary School
At Success Academy, we want our scholars to fall in love with learning — and joyful rigor is our formula for achieving off-the-charts engagement.
Learn More Apply NowWe capture our scholars’ imaginations by introducing them to fascinating subject matter and pressing them to do the intellectual heavy lifting, constantly asking them “why?” “how can you prove that?” and “what is the evidence?” We want our scholars to recognize and embrace the power of their own ideas, so teachers limit direct instruction and focus on encouraging independent thinking and problem-solving in their classrooms. Our scholars spend most of their day exploring, analyzing, discussing, and executing their way through powerful texts, complex math problems, intriguing science experiments, winning chess strategies, and inspiring works of art.

Middle School
Success Academy middle schoolers enjoy a challenging, knowledge-rich, and immersive program that sets them up for success in both high school and college.
Learn MoreThe curriculum encourages scholars to think critically and incisively, to develop and debate ideas, and to always support their ideas and opinions with evidence. Our approach is inquiry-based and collaborative; we strive for mastery of a broad range of knowledge and skills and believe that pushing students to do the thinking work through dialogue, debate, and hands-on learning best enables expertise. Our middle schools also offer a variety of enriching electives that serve as critical outlets for creativity and self-expression, and foster self-awareness, confidence, and independence.
