The Academy Schools is a network of award-winning schools for delinquent youth. Based in Western Pennsylvania and managed by leaders and innovators in the field of juvenile justice with over 30 years of experience, these schools are both community-based and residential, serving both local and out-of-state students.
"All their lives, our students have been caught doing something wrong. Our job is to catch them doing something right."
Our schools consistently strive to place our students in a positive, productive environment; one which fosters success and nurtures the self-accomplishment which naturally follows. Whether it be an A on a math test, the completion of an art project, or the game-winning jump shot, students are encouraged to discover and utilize their talents to better themselves and the people and environment around them.
We seek to capture our students in their best moments, emphasize their success, teach them to raise the bar on their standards, and then work our hardest to never let them revert to less than their best. We believe that self-accomplishment is contagious, and once a student has proven to him/herself that he/she can succeed, they will continue to do whatever it is that brings them a sense of self-accomplishment and pride.
We, in turn, do our best to extend and expand this sensation of pride and triumph across their lives so that they know they have the ability to be the best they can be at home, at work, and in the community. We want our students to be able to leave one of our schools equipped with the experience, knowledge, and passion to make every place they influence a place where pride still matters.
