St. Thérèse Academy: Catholic school for exceptional learners

Beginning fall 2019, St. Thérèse Academy will offer a new Catholic education option for students with exceptional needs or learning differences.

Its mission is to teach children to model their lives after Jesus Christ, strive for academic excellence and develop their personal and physical selves to become positive contributing members of the community.

The educational framework at St. Thérèse Academy is based on 21st-century models of blended learning to meet students’ individual needs, giving special needs students the benefits of both face-to-face instruction with a qualified teacher and the assets of online learning.
