Why ARCHES?

ARCHES Academy is a new approach to education in a time when many people agree that one is badly needed.

The old way of grouping students together just because they are all the same age has resulted in far too many students that are either struggling to keep with their peers and giving up on themselves or bored because they have already mastered the material and are now causing trouble to entertain themselves.

Our focus is on the needs of individual students. We show this focus by grouping our K-8 students according to their demonstrated ability in each content area.

This means that students get the instruction they need in each subject. We also track student progress carefully so that we can move students forward as soon as they are able, meaning they get to move at their own pace.

In addition, ARCHES Academy also provides a strong character and leadership development system that emphasizes universal values and truly heroic behavior as well as teaching real leadership skills such as effective listening, presentation/public speaking, time management, goal setting, etc.

"So happy my kid is going here. She is so inspired to learn and push herself to do her best."

Pam Krause
ARCHES Parent

"Wonderful teachers committed to building something new! … Their model is new and nothing like it has ever been done. I am so excited that my child's first years in elementary school will be spent in a place that allows him to explore his interests and unique talents. No required homework and small class sizes mean my child gets individualized education and works at his own pace!"

"ARCHES has a great approach to educating children. My son started Kindergarten here and really enjoyed the small classes and focused attention. I personally noticed a difference in the way he interacted at home with others. They taught him how to express himself more and vocalize his feelings instead of letting his frustrations overcome him. Thank you for your behavioral health approach to making education more rounded. I also want to mention I fully agree with the less homework-focused approach they take, as children should be taught to enjoy education instead of resenting it."

"It is with great pleasure to recommend ARCHES Academy for anyone who needs something extra for their child. The school has been a blessing for my son. The teachers are caring and understanding to each child’s individual needs. They go beyond a normal school in helping children to learn, and especially make a point they understand before they move on to the next lesson. I am extremely happy I was able to find this school and impressed by the work they do."

I am proud of him because his learning process has made total positive changes in his life! I give thanks to all the staff for their dedication to my son’s education!"

"ARCHES academy has got both of my children at the levels they are supposed to be at. It’s a good school - all the teachers are nice, even the principal. I like the fact that they take their time to work one on one with the kids. My children came here and the middle of December and they have been coming here since then. I just love the fact that Faith and Issac are able to succeed and get better."
