We don't teach to the test at Mission Academy because we don't believe that students are defined by their performance on a standardized test. We evaluate students on their knowledge and performance in a given subject area, but we also are looking for indicators of emotional and spiritual growth. We want to see our students thrive in a place where a grade on a test doesn't dictate their self-esteem or their self-efficacy. When parents request that a student be tested, we will oblige, but there is no "testing week" at Mission Academy... We believe that every child has the potential to achieve great things. At the Academy, we strive to create an environment where each child feels encouraged, supported, and challenged. We want to educate the whole child and so our schedule, our emphasis, our goals are different from the norm. These are just some of the ways that we are different... Students will have 60 minutes of recess each day. We believe that children need physical movement in order..
