Every student is unique in terms of educational background, learning ability, and interest in school. But it is also affected by other factors such as the student’s socioeconomic status, home life, and personal or learning challenges. My challenge is to educated my kids that haven't been successful in a regular school setting, often due to behavior issues or policy violations. The Central Academy is a Title I school and services students in grades 6-12 and most students will stay on average of 20-45 days in length; however, they are highly likely to return when sent back to their "home" school as they often repeat the behaviors. There is often 40-60 students in the building enrolled, but with rotation, each teacher will possibly see up to 350 students prior to the end of the year.
