The Peabody Academy
About the Program​
The Peabody Academy is our academic program for exceptional students designed utilizing the Florida ACCESS Standards. The educational approach uses team-building exercises, hands-on educational programs, and a computer-based curriculum. Additionally, behavioral therapeutic approaches to social skills and emotional development are implemented throughout the school day.
Students in our Peabody Academy learn in a variety of ways, whether they are out in our garden growing vegetables or cooking with the very ingredients they’ve grown! Along with core academics, students are engaged with the community through meaningful outings for recreation and life skills lessons.
