Brandon Academy serves a need in the community for a school without a religious affiliation. The school attracts a diverse population, including children from every religion, culture and ethnicity living in our region. Brandon Academy enrolls students in grades PreK3 through 12th. Our High School currently offers theIB Diploma Programme. Our faculty-student ratio is 11:1. This makes it possible to

best address the intellectual, social, emotional and physical needs of students. The instructional emphasis is on foundational skills, particularly in reading, math, language and writing. A stimulating curriculum balanced with hands-on activities promotes creativity, curiosity and the joy of learning. Students typically work one to two years above grade level. All students use technology in the classroom and science labs. Beginning in grade 4, all students use iPads as a learning and production tool. In addition to the core curriculum, a focus on a well-rounded educational experience is achieved. Beginning in Pre-K3, students are exposed to computer, art, music, physical education and a foreign language. In the middle school, increased specialization in these areas is provided through courses such as web design, performing chorus, drama, ceramics, painting, yearbook and photography. The students’ experience is supported by a unique discipline plan that allows them to have ownership in their school. Students organize and lead their own Student Council as well as the Honor Board. Students are proud of their contribution to charitable activities which is a tradition at Brandon Academy. All grade levels have the opportunity to participate in fund raising activities that are both fun and for a good cause. Jude’s Mathathon, Pasta for Pennies for Leukemia, UNICEF, Jump Rope for Heart and Hop-a-Thon for MDA are just a few examples. Leadership, working together for common goals and social consciousness are all hallmarks of the students of Brandon Academy. Brandon Academy proves every day that it is not necessary to “teach to the test” or to sacrifice creative assignments, art, music, physical education, field trips and other enrichment that make learning fun. What sets Brandon Academy apart is providing students the opportunity for learning beyond the classroom. Frequent off-campus field trips to museums, zoos, theatres, and historical sites such as the Tampa Museum of Art, Big Cat Rescue, Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center, and Edison House occur. Brandon Academy regularly hosts book authors, animal encounters, science demonstrations and even a hot air balloon demonstration. Ten to twelve such events are scheduled per month
for students in grades Pre-K3 through high school. Beginning in grade four, students have the unique opportunity for overnight travel experiences such as Pathfinders, St. Augustine, Sea Camp, Washington DC and Europe. Students graduate from Brandon Academy well prepared for challenges facing youth today. The voyage through Brandon Academy provides a love of learning, fond memories and friendships that last a lifetime.
