Ages 5 – 11 Elementary School ’ s three classrooms are led by Alabama certified teachers who earned Master ’ s degrees or higher . We offer a rich curriculum based on Multiple Intelligences .
Ages 11-14 Middle School teaches higher-level academic practices needed for analyzing text and data , organizing notes , writing with clarity and purpose , and presenting their ideas with confidence .
Ages 14-18 High School students pursue mastery learning of content for 9th through 12th grades . They expand academic skills , engage in community service , and pursue one of two paths to college and career readiness : Early College at UA or technical courses at Shelton State .
