Greenways Academy was founded as an alternative for students whose needs are not being met at traditional schools.
Some of our students have difficulty excelling in a traditional school setting because of medical conditions, learning disabilities, psychological issues, or unique scheduling needs.
Other students enroll to supplement their schools curriculum with courses they may not be able to take at their current school.Our program is for students in grades 5-12 offering core subjects as well as foreign languages, fine arts, computer science, career planning, and other electives.
The flexibility of our program sets us apart from traditional schools, which often try to make all students conform to a pre-set teaching style regardless of their learning strengths, weaknesses, or personalities.
