Our History
In 2009, the founder, a futurist saw
the vision gathered some leaders and Destiny Academy was incorporated. Its
leaders were unsatisfied with the traditional way in which many school systems
were educating the future leaders of our country. Since its incorporation the
smallest and darkest eyes were made bigger and brighter. In the past we have
taught students, who were considered truancy, behavioral problematic, and
disabled. In spite of such labeling we strive to assist them in achieving their
highest potential.
In our eyes each child is different
and therefore requires individualized education. This is where our holistic
approach comes into play. Our special curriculum and unique classes allows us
to provide a strong enrichment for our students as well as their families. By taking a look at the child’s whole
environment we can come up with a better picture of their needs. Family
participation is a priority at our school.
Our Curriculum
In addition to the core syllabus, Destiny Academy has made significant
additions to the general curriculum in terms of compulsory extra-curricular
training and events. Our students attend mandatory visits to the library and
educational trips to various places of academic interest such as museums,
agencies, businesses, factories, zoos and farms, etc.
Our Faculty/Teachers
At Destiny Academy we pride ourselves
on its world-class teachers. All of our teachers are qualified in the subjects
they teach. We have high standards in regard to who we hire to teach our
students, making it possible for our students to experience the highest quality
of education and scholarship. All of our lead staff have MA and Doctoral
Degrees. In addition to being highly qualified, our team is highly motivated and
optimistic.
Classrooms
Our rooms
are creatively designed to enhance learning. We use a variety of visual
supports in the classroom. We also have computers for our students to utilize
for writing, reading, researching and fun. We provide many hands-on learning
activities within the classroom for our students. Understanding the importance
of physical safety, we make sure that the materials in our classrooms are
nontoxic and that the equipment are safe.
Safety Setup
When it comes to our children we understand that
it is important to keep them safe. Our students are as important to us as they
are to you. We understand the need to keep a steady look-out for their well
being, and have in place a setup that ensures that any unforeseen event can be
handled efficiently.
We also have a Board Certified Behavior Analyst based at the school in the
mornings and afternoons to assist with problems that students might encounter
during school hours. In the event that there is a major accident we will speed
your child to the nearest hospital for emergency care and you, the parents,
will be informed as soon as possible.
