Southhampton Academy Enrichment Program

Southampton Academy challenges and encourages each student to learn and grow through academic experiences that combine innovation and tradition with moral and spiritual values in a supportive family environment.

What we value most:

Morals and Character desiring what is right and good; being accountable for ones actions Safety and Respect providing for childrens physical and emotional security; teaching them to embrace diversity and to accept and appreciate peoples differences Learning and Achievement helping each child grow intellectually; maintaining academic standards and traditions in preparing students for success in higher education Family and Community encouraging supportive relationships among students, parents, faculty and staff

What we believe about raising children and educating students:

That cooperative learningworking and playing well with othersis an essential life skill That students benefit both from personal attention and from group experiences in classes that are relatively small and manageable That children, to become independent, must learn to set worthwhile goals, to organize and discipline their efforts, and to appreciate the satisfaction of a job well done That school experiences should stimulate childrens curiosity and creativity and help them discover and develop personal gifts and interests That students learning needs are met best by combining traditional and innovative methods That seeking truth should not exclude issues of faith

What we want our school experiences to produce:

Students who understand their own learning styles and know their unique gifts and callings Learners prepared for the challenges of college, career, and continuous change Selfless citizens prepared to serve and lead in family and society Independent thinkers who read, listen, observe, write, and speak clearly and effectivelywho desire wisdom and understanding, truth and beauty, what is right and good

What we intend to do to fulfill our mission:

Create and protect a safe, nurturing, caring environment Hire talented, dedicated teachers and school leaders to provide excellent educational programs Support professional development of faculty and staff and seek continued school improvement Enroll students with abilities and desires to meet challenging academic expectations Offer financial assistance to families who cannot otherwise afford full tuition Market the school to recruit and enroll a diverse student population Encourage effective communication and cooperation between home and school Provide opportunities for students to belong to things greater than themselves, to find a sense of community, shared purpose, teamwork, respect, and love for others Maintain proper balance between academic priorities and co-curricular programs Build, acquire, maintain, and improve campus facilities and resources to support learning
