An Elevated Approach to Community

Our Mission

“Elevate Academy’s mission is for all students to take responsibility for leading their own lives and studying a career track that may include vocational and college paths or a combination thereof.”

Elevate Academy was founded on the belief that students from all backgrounds deserve the opportunity to engage in an educational program that is meaningful to them, and that provides a direction and sense of purpose for their future.

Elevate Academy’s 6th-12th grade students have the opportunity to discover and develop their personal strengths, enhance their leadership skills, and find their passion for life as they explore future career paths. Building a firm foundation in middle school will support continued growth and success for students in high school. Students graduate with industry certification necessary to gain employment and the skills and knowledge to go on and further their training if they desire.

Community Driven Education

Elevate Academy brings education and industry together in a 6th-12th grade, learning environment to build the future of our community and the workforce. Our goal is to help students become career leaders – industry certified, engaged, productive professionals.

Community Driven Education
Career Tech Focus

Career & Technical Focus

Career Technical Education spaces are designed by professionals and offerings aligned to Idaho’s industry needs. Local industry partnerships include construction, welding/manufacturing, culinary arts, criminal justice, firefighting, business/marketing, graphic design, medical arts, and others according to community input and need.

We believe that when students are inspired by their school and learning, they are more likely to develop healthy habits and mindsets, leading them toward academic achievement and success in the workforce.

Beat the Odds! At Risk Youth

Elevate Academy is a school of choice for students who qualify as at risk and are not finding success in a traditional education setting. Elevate Academy seeks to inspire hope in each learner through goals, opportunities, and instruction that connects to their interests and strengths.

Beat The Odds
Opportunity Driven Focus

Opportunity Driven Focus

Elevate Academy’s learning opportunities are designed to align local industry work with core academic subjects so that students will find purpose behind everything that is learned in the classroom. Students attend four days of scheduled learning experiences. The fifth day of the week is additional time for CTE programs, intervention for students who are academically deficient, and enrichment for students that are on or above grade level.

Elevate Academy believes the relationship between teacher and student is vital. For students to learn best, our teachers establish and build relationships of care, trust, cooperation and respect. Our Elevate Academy team shares a passion for supporting each student in developing their full potential, which will help them foster resilience, and ignite their desire to reach new heights.

Integrated Purpose Driven Curriculum

Offering relevant and interest-based learning experiences, while educating the whole child is a priority at Elevate Academy. Core instruction is taught through CTE experiences, providing students with relevant connections to the required Idaho Content Standards. Students have the opportunity to earn college credit and industry certifications. By owning their educational pathway, students become contributing members of their community and local economy upon graduation.

Integrated Purpose Driven Curriculum
Mastery-Based Education

Mastery-Based Education

Elevate Academy’s students receive personalized and mastery-based learning opportunities. Students are supported through four phases of learning that include define/identify, create, communicate/share, and apply. We recognize the value of a highly-skilled workforce, along with lifelong learners. Our 6th-12th grade learning continuum provides a space to support students as they develop knowledge and skills of state academic and industry standards.
