Welcome to South Arbor Academy
You Know How Good a School Should Be…
Now Meet that School: South Arbor Charter Academy
How many Kindergarten through Eighth grade schools do you know where, on any given day twenty-five parents may be found in the classrooms, helping in the office, tutoring students, supervising recess and just being a significant part of the average day at school? How many schools do you know where students are thriving academically in an environment of mutual respect and teamwork? Well, at South Arbor Charter Academy you will encounter such a school—a school where parents are partners with teachers, staff and administration and all students are both challenged and supported to perform at their very best.
The charter school movement in Michigan has created new opportunities for public, tuition-free education for students, teachers and parents. South Arbor Academy reveals the potential of this movement to provide an alternative environment where academic standards, moral virtue and teamwork are understood as the foundation for a child’s success. South Arbor Academy is built upon the four “pillars” that define the educational philosophy of all National Heritage Academies schools: 1) Academic Excellence, 2) Moral Focus, 3) Parental Partnerships and 4) Student Accountability.
Upon these four pillars is built the day-to-day life of the South Arbor Academy family. Together we are offering a learning environment where each student achieves—no excuses, no compromise, no exceptions. All students are provided the opportunity to envision their goal and experience the challenge, instruction, encouragement and guidance needed to achieve it. Read on and you will learn more about the unique place of growth and learning that is South Arbor Charter Academy.
