The Grant Academy is proud to announce that we have…
The Grant Academy is a private school that specializes in meeting the needs of students with learning disabilities, ADHD, and autism. The Grant Academy accepts Georgia Special Needs Scholarships. We educate students 1st through 9th grade.
The Grant Academy was started by educators who felt that the students with special needs of Cherokee County deserved another option. There are many students that were falling through the cracks and we feel that these students’ would thrive in the right environment. Our belief is that all students can learn, but some learn in different ways. We utilize a whole brain approach to learning to help optimize their learning experience. Students are taught to think for themselves and become global learners. The Grant Academy meets the students where they are functioning and helps them achieve all that they can achieve.
All of our teachers are certified in special education. Our teachers all have experience and a passion for teaching. We believe in a team approach where everyone works together to help students reach their goals.
In the right environment, students will achieve more success. The Grant Academy provides smaller classes in a warm and nurturing environment. All teachers are highly qualified teachers who are certified in special education and have experience working with this population. The teachers make adaptations in the environment to help students be more successful. All students can learn, some students just need to learn in different ways. We use a whole brain approach to learning so all types of learners experience success. The lesson plans are guided by Individualized Education Plans (IEP) and are developed with the belief that it takes a whole community to educate students. Parents, teachers, and students need to work together to help students’ achieve their academic and social goals.
