Welcome to Concord Academy
"Making a Positive Difference" for over 25 years!
WHO WE ARE:

A State Approved, Non-Profit Special Education School
Serving students with a variety of abilities and disabilities in grades 6 - 12
Established in 1983 - 25 years of experience

Learning disabilities in math, reading (dyslexia), or written expression
Attention deficit disorder
Auditory processing and/or visual perceptual impairments

Students who lack skills for appropriate social functioning that consequently impede learning resulting from disorders such as:

Asperger's Syndrome or High Functioning Autism
Anxiety or Depression

(These students must not exhibit behaviors that negatively impact the learning or well being of any of our other students.)
Sometimes the students we serve are challenged with a single, special learning consideration or a defined social-emotional need. Much more often, however, these children face a combination of disabling factors that require a variety of programs to address unique needs.
WHAT WE DO:

Provide a caring envronment, small class size, personal attention, acceptance and respect.
Offer a flexible, modified curriculum in all Jr. & Sr. High School subjects.
Teach competency skills required to earn a regular dipolma and build a general fund of knowledge.
Challenge students to reach their personal best in all areas.
Use multi-sensory methods of instruction.
Provide typical high school social activities.
Encourage and arrange community service experiences.
Teach the "whole child" providing social, emotional, prevocational/transitional as well as academic guidance.

Classes are offered in transition and teen-adult living, relationship skill building and conflict management. Group therapy is conducted by a licensed psychologist.
Our guidance counselor provides individual and classroom instruction in values and character development as well as Career and Health Awareness Days and many other beneficial learning and community experiences.
CONCORD ACADEMY IS SO MUCH MORE THAN A SCHOOL! IT IS A MINISTRY--SERVING STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGHOUT MEMPHIS AND THE SURROUNDING COUNTIES IN ARKANSAS, MISSISSIPPI AND TENNESSEE.
