Considering a Change in Schools?
We know that for some families, the search for a new school wasn't part of the plan. Whether you're relocating, your child's needs have changed, or circumstances have unexpectedly shifted, choosing a new school can feel overwhelming.
At The Academy at St. Joan of Arc, we've helped many families navigate school transitions with care. Our admissions team is available to answer questions, arrange personal tours, and guide you through the process at your pace.
“It’s important to me that my children are learning not just academics, but how to be good people and how to respect others.”
For Elise, choosing The Academy meant finding a school where her children would be known, supported, and encouraged to become not only strong students, but kind and confident people. She sees that growth every day, in the classroom, in their relationships, and in a community where students truly look out for one another.
When Nicole decided to move her son to The Academy at St. Joan of Arc, she was looking for a school that would both challenge him academically and give him the consistency he needed to grow. What she found went beyond what she had hoped for.
“I really value their strong academics and the structured, accountable environment,” Nicole says. “I’ve seen a complete change in my son.” Read more here
Emily never imagined sending her child to a private school. Like many families, she assumed public school would be the right fit. Over time, however, she realized her daughter would benefit from more consistency, personal attention, and an environment where she could truly flourish.
“If you’re a parent wondering whether private school might be right for your child, even if you’ve never considered it before, just visit. Walk the halls, meet the teachers, see the students in action—you’ll feel what we felt.” Read more here

Where Learning Feels Personal
When Elise and Dave chose The Academy at St. Joan of Arc for their two older children, they were looking for more than strong academics. With one child in kindergarten and another in preschool, they wanted a school that would nurture their character, celebrate who they are, and help them grow into kind, confident individuals.
“The Academy is an amazing community,” Elise shares. “The teachers and staff are excellent, and they truly care about every child.” Read more here.
Learning That Adapts, Expands, and Grows With Your Child
At The Academy at St. Joan of Arc, academic growth isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s personal, intentional, and designed to help every child reach their full potential.
For Linnea, what stood out most was the school’s commitment to truly understanding each student. “They didn’t just meet both my daughters' needs,” she shared, “they challenged them to grow.”
That mindset shows up in the classroom every day. Teachers adapt and extend learning based on each child’s strengths, interests, and readiness. For her daughters, that meant opportunities like advanced math assignments to push their thinking, and hands-on science projects tailored to their natural curiosity—like building 3D habitat models for a student who loves to create.
But what makes this approach different is the flexibility behind it. Teachers and administrators don’t just follow a fixed path—they actively look for ways to help students move forward. “There’s a real culture of ‘find a way,’” Linnea explained. “They focus on where a student can go, and then they make it happen.”
This personalized approach builds more than academic success—it builds confidence and a love of learning. After her time at the Academy, her older daughter left with something even more meaningful: “She found her love of learning again.” That allowed her to make an easy transition into high school and fueled the success she has had there.
At the Academy, each child is seen for who they are. They’re supported when they need it, challenged when they’re ready, and that’s what helps them grow in remarkable ways.
