Student Life

“I love this school! It's been like my home.” A graduating senior said these words to the principal, this past June, as she faced life beyond high school. Many students report similar sentiments as they reflect on four years at Peoples Academy.

Being like someone's home is one of the attributes which Peoples Academy has developed by offering every student significant ways to belong, to make a contribution to the school community while learning and enriching his or her own life.

Visitors report feeling a special warmth when they arrive at Peoples Academy. Alumni retain their interest in and connection to Peoples Academy. Following one of our traditional school events, a new teacher said, “They never did anything as meaningful as this where I went to high school.” A former teacher observed, “I think I may have made a mistake when I left Peoples Academy . There's no other place like this.” A guest speaker said to the student body at the end of an assembly, “You people have something special going on here. I don't know how you do it, but this feels like a family.”

Parents, visitors, and prospective students are welcome at Peoples Academy. Just call the office for an appointment and check in at the office on arrival. We'll be happy to see you.
