About Benjamin Academy
Our Mission
At Benjamin Academy, our mission is to empower every child by embracing their unique learning differences. We focus on creating a nurturing environment that fosters self-confidence and personal growth for all students.
Our STUDENTS
Benjamin Academy is a private school south of Atlanta, designed to meet the needs of children who learn differently. We promote growth while establishing a unique lesson plan designed to meet student needs in the classroom daily. Most children who enroll at our school have not been successful in a typical GENERAL classroom setting. Despite many small accommodations, the larger classroom size often prohibits an opportunity for children to achieve their full potential. As children progress, parents may find that their children require a classroom conducive to their individual needs.
Benjamin Academy is a school for high-functioning students who, after a diagnosis, determine they may need a different learning environment.
**Currently, we are unable to serve students with Emotional and Behavioral Disorders, Behavior Intervention Plans, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, or other Conduct Disorders.**
