The mission of STARS Academy is to successfully educate all students through meaningful academic inquiry guided by the influence of the arts (musical theater integration) at a rigor that is tailored to meet the needs of each unique learner. Through individualized, small group, standards-based instruction, we ensure students master concepts before moving on to new ones. Within the STARS Academy’s model, students develop positive self-esteem, respect, empathy, and respect for cultural diversity led by caring educators. We foster a safe learning environment in which we instill intrinsic motivation rather than external rewards. STARS provides students with the opportunity to problem solve, self express, be autonomous, and empower them to take initiative in their learning experience.
