Our Vision
At Betty's Academy, our vision is to cultivate a pioneering educational environment where future global leaders emerge. By incorporating both traditional and innovative learning methodologies, we aim to shape a nurturing community that thrives together. Our ultimate goal is to be the birthplace of world-changing leaders, founding an educational legacy that reverberates globally.
Our Mission
Children receive a basic education no matter which school they attend. Reading, writing, and arithmetic have long been considered the necessary foundations of education. We believe there's more.
At Betty's Academy, our mission is to go beyond the basics by providing a unique learning experience that integrates entrepreneurship, leadership, and technology with structure, discipline, and new-age wisdom, in addition to the basic fundamentals.
We are dedicated to enriching the entrepreneurial and leadership endeavors of students, parents, families, teachers, and the wider community. Through exposure to diverse and comprehensive data, we empower young minds to ask meaningful questions and seek profound answers, ensuring they are well-prepared for the complexities of the modern world.
Our Values System
Community Involvement:
We believe in the power of a thriving learning ecosystem that includes students, teachers, parents, and the entire community. Our students receive regular learning guidance and instruction from community leaders and entrepreneurs.
Innovative Learning:
We incorporate forward-thinking educational methods to prepare our students for global leadership roles. If it is happening at the highest levels of entrepreneurship and leadership, we want to expose and teach it to our students now.
Holistic Development:
We emphasize both structure and creativity, ensuring a balanced growth experience for our students.
Access and Exposure:
We commit to providing a rich array of experiences and data to broaden the intellectual and emotional horizons of our students.
Exemplary Leadership:
We encourage and model leadership that is impactful and sustainable, inspiring our learners to emulate these traits.
Controlled Access to Technology:
We are a controlled technology school. We believe access, experience and exposure to technology is a must in this world, especially when preparing Global Entrepreneurial Leaders. Access also comes with risk and exposure we must control as caregivers and providers. We control the technological exposure to devices such as computers or tablets as it pertains to student learning. This means students are NEVER permitted to bring any outside technology into our school. No cell phones. No tablets. No computers.
Excellence:
We strive to do everything with excellence and we do mean everything.
Experience:
We give our students every opportunity to experience what it's like to thrive at the highest levels. We want them to feel what their future looks like now by providing experiential opportunities to bring their ideas to life.
