Explore Academy Information

Currently, Explore Academy serves grades 9 adn 10 for the 2014-15 school year. As we grow, we will add additional grade levels. For the 2015-16 school year Explore Academy will enroll 9th, 10th, and 11th graders. Who are the teachers? Explore Academy was founded and is built by its teachers with the intention or providing a smarter, more innovative way in educating students. While many charter schools often employ new and unexperienced teachers, Explore Academy's founding group and its teaching faculty are composed entirely of master teachers. What are the hours of a typical school day? Explore Academy's school hours are 7:45am-3:11pm. Does Explore Academy provide its instruction through online courses? No. While the school will utilize technology in the classroom, we believe that the face-to-face student-teacher relationship maximizes student learning and success and best prepares a student for college and career. While many schools are migrating to online-learning environments, we feel that personalize instruction from exceptional teachers still provides students with the best learning environment. Does Explore Academy offer athletics programs? We encourage an active lifestyle in each of our students, and as such, Explore Academy plans to offer athletic programs. Our athletics programs will be similar to what is seen at the college level, with many leagues of intramural sports including basketball, dodgeball, flag football, soccer, and volleyball (and more, based on student interest). Leagues will be male only, female only, and coed. By law, students who wish to participate in NMAA sports and extracurricular activities (band, orchestra, etc.) may do so at their local area high schools.
