Dragons Academy, a fully accredited private school offering the highest accredited curriculum in the United States through transformative programs focused on nurturing each student through one-to-one, strengths-based learning, will soon open four new facilities across the United States, including one in the Wellington area.
Dragons delivers a complete, Cognia-accredited K-12 academic program through a highly personalized one-to-one learning model that nurtures each student’s strengths. Every student begins with a personalized learning plan built around academic assessment, interests, long‑term goals and areas where they are ready to accelerate.
The curriculum focuses on math, science, reading, writing, social studies and the arts, which can be fulfilled through either face-to-face, virtual or hybrid formats. This builds strong academic foundations within students, preparing them for advanced learning and long-term success, while also providing them with the flexibility they need for a more balanced family life.
With focused instruction from highly qualified educators, the curriculum follows an equivalent hours methodology, which enables students to adjust their learning schedule to best fit their needs.
In addition, the accredited private school, has an emphasis on leadership development and technology built into the curriculum. More powerful than home schooling and non-proctored virtual learning models, the fully accredited curriculum, highly qualified teachers, flexible schedule and one-on-one approach, creates the ideal atmosphere for students to thrive.
“Every parent wants the very best education for their child. We established Dragons Academy to help parents provide their children with the best possible combination of a fully accredited curriculum with experienced tools to secure a promising future without compromising time that can be spent with family or pursuing interests in sports or the arts. We are excited to bring our successful model to even more communities through our new facilities,” said Louis Hernandez Jr., founder and executive chair of Dragons Academy.
Dragons Academy is pioneering a more cost-effective, flexible and integrated approach to youth development, prioritizing excellence in academics, athletics and leadership.
“I’m very excited and proud of the work the team has put into creating a better learning model following the accredited private school curriculum, with a powerful and flexible one-on-one learning model to optimize the learning and time for students and families. I look forward to serving the expanding number of communities,” said Dom Coppola, director of academics at the Dragons Academy.
