In general, this project will lead to academic and real world success for the students enrolled in this facility.
The Learning Academy is an individualized learning facility open to all students at Stoughton High School. This is the first year of this program, and will serve approximately 100 students who are exploring a different way to learn in a different environment. Some of the students enrolled in the Academy have social, mental health, or credit deficiency issues at the high school.
