SPRINGFIELD ACADEMY OF EXCELLENCE

Springfield Academy of Excellence is proud to be a Comer school (Dr. James Comer, Yale University) that believes maximum academic achievement for all students happens when: Developmental needs of the whole child are met; Students are given adequate time to master skills (different children require different amounts of time to learn); Extra instructional time is devoted to numeracy and literacy skills because success in all other subjects is dependent on the mastery of these basic skills. "Our mission is to provide education in a nurturing environment that focuses on the development of the whole child. Emphasis is placed on academic achievement as well as physical, psychological, social, and ethical development.”
