Welcome to Phoenix Academy - Elevating Education, Building Character™

Phoenix Academy is a tuition-free public charter school in High Point serving students in grades K-12. We shape instruction to build on the strengths and abilities of each student and integrate Moral Focus™ lessons into every school day. As a result, our students are well-prepared from kindergarten through high school. A Stanford University study found National Heritage Academies partner-school students gained the equivalent of 3.5 months of additional learning each year compared to peers.

Meet Your Principal

"School should be a place kids like to come. It should be a place families feel welcome and happy to leave their children. I am proud to have been at Phoenix Academy for over 20 years helping to make it just that place. We are a family who cares and sees the potential in each person who comes through our doors be it a student, parent, or staff member. Through the building of relationships, we work to educate the whole child. It is our honor to be a part of your family's educational journey and to help shape the future."

- Heather McNees, Principal at Phoenix
