The Turning Point Academy

Channel 2 News Anchor Rachel McNeill interviewed us today

 

This morning Ciara, Adelle, Willa Beth, Sarah, Marty and I were interviewed by a Channel 2 News anchor.
We spoke with Rachel McNeill about the false stigma of schools that are in a home.
TPA students report:
We are very social in the appropriate ways.
No one drags us down.
We are not students who have been removed, were the outcasts, or who were struggling in schools.
We are the students who crave knowledge and a successful future.
We are the students who are eager to take the steps necessary to be successful as soon as we can. 
We are the students who are bored in typical schools.
We are the students who do not see "hallway drama" as a tool for success.
  
The founders of TPA believe that their school will be the model for great schools in the future. A model high achievers will flock to.
With all the experience the Appelbaum's possess, (over 20 years training teachers for their CEU's, www.ATIseminars.org) they have blended the best models of education, adding in the charm of working in a luxurious home with a spectacular view. They have sprinkled in the prestige of working toward college at early ages which gives TPA a unique and amazing educational experience for its students.
This is a new kind of school.
Our plans are to grow into a gorgeous facility. That is why we are implementing a private school curriculum that is recognized by the College Board and the educational testing service vs of a home school curriculum.
Up Close magazine has coined us "The Boutique style learning experience".
 
You will need to tune in to Channel 2 News next week to see our coverage.
We will post our segment on TPA's blog and Facebook as soon as it is available.
