Faith Academy

This is the parent who had given up.

The school's counselor sat us down in October of his junior year. "He's 6 credits in. He needs 23 to graduate. I want to be honest with you - I don't think he's going to make it."

I drove home in silence. I didn't know what to say to him.

We'd already tried everything. The tutor. The conversations. The consequences. Nothing stuck.

A friend told us about Faith Academy. I'll be honest — I didn't think it would be different. I thought it was just another option that would end the same way.

His teacher sat down with him his first week and said, "Let's see how many you can earn this semester. Not all of them. Just as many as you can."

He earned 4. Then 4. Then 4 more. He showed up to campus day every week, sat down, and did the work.

The diploma is back on the table. And for the first time in two years, I actually believe he's going to walk.

The traditional school told us the math didn't work. Faith Academy did the math with him.

If your student has been told they're not going to graduate - there's a version of this story that ends differently. Faith Academy has been doing this since 1987.

Summer semesters are shorter. That means the pace is faster.

If you start the first week like you have all the time in the world, week six will arrive before you've blinked.

The students who finish strong are the ones who lock in their rhythm early.

You can do this.

Faith Academy is walking with you.
