Clearwall Academy is a new Atlanta preparatory school that will be opening August,  2015 initially for third through fifth grade. 

*Note: This site went live Janurary 2, 2014 and is in very early construction.  More extensive information and an improved format will be rolled out on a regular basis.

Why a new school?

As parents and teachers we have experienced first-hand the fact that many children do not enjoy, thrive, or meet their potential in the classroom. Students that miss key concepts and don't achieve a strong command of each of the foundational subjects are vulnerable.

Getting a "B" doesn't  mean a student adequately understands a critical concept.

A domino effect often begins, hurting other subjects (i.e.  reading comprehension impacting science) and later grade levels.  For some this manifests itself as slowly deteriorating grades or an inability to meet all requirements for gifted programs.  For others it surfaces during standardized tests (i.e. CRCT, IOWA, SSATs).   Student confidence and motivation begins to lessen and  under achievement becomes reinforced.

 In retrospect, the root problem for many of these children was primarily a bad fit with their school environment:

• lack of focus and immersion in the foundational subjects
• inability for students to learn in different ways and speeds
• poor use of homework as a critical teaching and reinforcement tool
• lack of recognition and solutions for students who are confused on a topic or simply not engaged
• inadequate instruction on self-sufficiency skills: how to prepare, study, organize, and prioritize
• minimal focus on leadership and presentation skills development
• inability to challenge students to go faster in all strength areas

Our focus is to systemically target each of these deficiencies and create a environment dedicated to each child unlocking their full capability, and the joy that comes with that achievement.
