Purpose

It is my pleasure to welcome you to East End Academy, or EEA. At EEA, our doors open early and close late. This is because there are a number of programs housed under the same roof.

 

One such program at EEA is Jumpstart. Jumpstart is a program in which over-aged 8th-grade students are given a rigorous 9th-grade curriculum during the 2nd semester of their 8th-grade year. Students have the opportunity to earn 5 units: English I, Algebra I, Biology, World History, IBA, and Physical Education. Successful completion of these five units means the students will advance to high school the following school year as 10th graders!

 

The Refocus Academy is also housed at EEA. This program is a short-term intervention in which students are assigned by the disciplinary hearing board, in lieu of expulsion, or by the Assistant Superintendent for Administration with the principal’s recommendation.

 

As you can see, there are many different programs at EEA to meet the varied needs of our students. Visit frequently, as more programs are in development. We are constantly adjusting our programs to meet the ever-changing needs of our students.
