Cedars Academy
The Cedars Academy is a co-educational private preparatory school for students ages 10-18 who demonstrate a need for enhanced academic and social skill development. Our philosophy is that our students can develop stronger academic skills, and will benefit from a more secure and well-developed self-esteem. The program at Cedars is based upon our understanding of the comprehensive nature of the learning problems characteristic of the student we enroll, many who have been classified as having learning disabilities or ADHD. These students tend to encounter difficulties in the classroom, with peers, and among the family because they process and perceive information differently than others. Traditional educational methods have put these students in a situation where failure is guaranteed. We offer a structured education in an intimate academic environment with small class sizes and individual attention. The academic curriculum at Cedars is designed to prepare students for a college-bound course throughout their studies. The faculty at Cedars teach that making an effort to work at each step, as best one can, is the way to be successful.
