Educationally
Inclusive

Encompass Academy harnesses student strengths to create a personalized inclusive learning environment that celebrates the diversity of all learners and all abilities.

Personalized
Learning

Every human learns differently, with different passions and strengths. Each student is met at their academic and social-emotional levels to maximize their potential once they leave our walls.

Advocacy
Focused

Students benefit from an environment that supports self-advocacy, which provides learners with the tools they need to be successful today and in the future.

Our Story

EnCompass Academy (EA) opened its doors in August of 2020. On the heels of an international pandemic, a group of educators, community members, and parents came together to provide personalized learning for students of all abilities. EA uses a proprietary grading system and educational model developed by Nacy Ryerson. The grading system and model allow students to work at a personalized level to master the state education standards and Common Core standards.

EA is passionate about educationally inclusive strength-based education. At Encompass Academy, students are encouraged to develop skills of advocacy, critical thinking, and the art of learning. EA is teacher-powered and allows teachers autonomy in their classrooms to give students what they need when they need it.

Encompass Academy operates on a twelve-month calendar with low student-to-teacher ratios. Students-centered classrooms allow teacher’s the autonomy to support students with what they need when they need it. Surrounding students with a holistic team approach and welcome the integration of therapy opportunities and partnerships when possible. An inclusive learning environment supports learners of all abilities. We provide personalized student portfolios based on the strengths and interests of your child. Finally, EA knows it takes a village to raise successful citizens, so we strive for a high level of communication and collaboration between students, parents, and their team.

You can see that EA is different.

The EA WAY

Our learners benefit from a diverse student population that currently encompasses the following demographics: neurodivergent, neurotypical, gifted, twice-exceptional, differing abilities, and various developmental disabilities. EA is always looking to grow to support students of all abilities!

We believe parents/guardians know their student better than anyone (other than the student themselves of course). Valuing a team approach to your student’s education, EA aims to make you feel included along your educational journey. From our teachers to our administrators, we value feedback, open communication, and a team approach. 

Learning is more fun when you pursue your passions and harness your strengths. At EA, we believe student strengths should be a top priority when educating your world changer!
