Blazer Academy

The Blazer Academy is a two-year program that strives to help students make a positive transition into high school. Lead teachers and administrators hold high expectations for students’ learning and social development. The mission of the Academy is to adopt a caring and supportive ap-proach to student problems and to ensure that they have the skills, desire and confidence to suc-ceed in high school.

The Blazer Academy provides an opportunity for students to attain their highest level of achieve-ment by building a foundation for continued academic and personal success. To achieve this goal, the Academy fosters strong parent-teacher-student relationships through consistent communica-tion and monitoring of students’ progress academically, emotionally and socially.

The first year provides 9th grade students with a strong academic curriculum and a smaller, more personal learning environment to help overcome adjustment issues and become more engaged in learning. Additionally, some students are enrolled in a seminar class designed to assist them in their core academic courses. The seminar provides tutorial sessions for students who are expe-riencing difficulty in math or English.

Blazer Academy continues to provide students with the support and close supervision they need for continued success in the 10th grade year.
