About Example Academy
Our history, mission, and how the school is governed.
Our Story
Example Academy opened its doors in 1998 with a single building and a simple idea: that every learner deserves a challenging, supportive place to grow. Today the campus serves students across a range of programs, with small classes, dedicated faculty, and a strong record of college and career readiness.
Mission
We prepare every learner to think critically, act with integrity, and contribute to their community. We meet students where they are and set high expectations for where they can go.
Governance
The school is led by a Head of School and governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees. The Board sets policy and approves the budget; the Head of School and administration run day-to-day operations.
