School that feels like family.
Welcome to Forest City Academy
Our promise:
1) Your child will wake up excited to come to school. Every day.
2) Your child will develop the academic knowledge, skills, character, and confidence to thrive in any pursuit.
3) Your child will be in an environment where they are safe, known, and valued.
Our Model is Built on:
Academic Excellence
Your child moves forward when they’re ready, learning at a pace that fits them.
From hands-on projects to Taco Tuesday at Cilantro, kids explore, create, and play while developing life skills.
Learning Beyond the Books
Here, kids make decisions that matter, building character, confidence, and a strong sense of community.
Character and Community
Different by design.
For the parent that wants something different:
Smaller class size and setting
Space for child-led play and activities
Mixed age groupings
Mastery-based (Kids advance when they’re ready. Don’t be surprised if your kindergartner starts multiplication)
Belonging at the center- from the moment your child enters to till they greet you at pickup, their unique gifts, interest, and personality traits are celebrated
“Intelligence plus character—that is the goal of true education. The complete education gives one not only power of concentration, but worthy objectives upon which to concentrate”
