Our school`s purpose is to change educational outcomes. Since 1971, West End Academy has helped thousands of children escape from educational disaster by offering 1:1, individualized instruction, and small class sizes.
Our mission is to reclaim success and opportunity for students who have encountered frustration and failure in their educational endeavors.
Education is not a one-size-fits-all approach and all students are individuals who have unique and specific needs.
Over the years, we have learned that students need one thing, a chance.
This chance is one to grow and thrive to become successful individuals in all aspects of life.
We strive to teach children academically and on the foundation of Christian principles, not only for today, but to give them hope for a future.
We desire to bring hope back to the student and their family, as well as provide a platform for the student to build a successful sense of self-worth.
