Our Academics
Phoenix Academy serves students in kindergarten through 12th grade with a strong academic program that helps each student learn, grow, and prepare for what's next. Through Moral Focus™ character development and partnership with families, we help students build the knowledge, skills, and character they need for success in high school and beyond.
Our Grade Levels
Kindergarten
Kindergarten is where the love of learning begins. Our caring teachers nurture curiosity, creativity, and confidence through hands-on exploration and engaging lessons that build essential academic and social skills. It’s the perfect foundation for a lifetime of growth.
Elementary
Elementary school is a time of growth and discovery. Students strengthen their skills in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies while learning to think critically and work collaboratively. Along the way, they build confidence, curiosity, and character that prepare them for middle school and beyond.
Middle School
Middle school is a time of personal growth and exploration. Students deepen their understanding across subjects, applying higher-level thinking and problem-solving to real-world ideas. With a strong academic and moral foundation, they’re prepared for the challenges of high school and the opportunities ahead.
High School
High school is a time for students to take on new challenges and grow both academically and personally. They build on what they learned in middle school by thinking more deeply, solving harder problems, and applying their skills to real-world situations. With a strong academic base and solid character, they are ready for the responsibility of high school and the opportunities it will bring.
