The CEER (Communications, Engineering, Entrepreneurship, Robotics) Academy is an opportunity for students in grades 1st through 8th grade to learn in an environment that is set up to be fast paced and flexible. Their learning will grow in an environment that is set up to be fast paced and flexible. Their learning will grow to new heights both vertically and horizontally. This program allows students to focus on their strengths and gives them the opportunity to share these strengths with other students both in their CEER classroom, across different grade levels, and with other campuses. Additionally, CEER affords students the chance to expand their learning outside the four walls of the classroom, collaborate with other students, and continuously grow as a learner and a leader.
