Hope Academy serves students in grades 9–12 who are working toward an Indiana-recognized high school diploma in a supportive environment that prioritizes both academic success and recovery. Our classes meet college admission standards and are designed to help students grow academically while developing the skills they need for life after graduation—whether that’s college, trade school, or entering the workforce.
We offer a full range of courses in English, math, science, and social studies, along with electives in visual arts, wellness, career readiness, and recovery support. Small class sizes and low student-to-teacher ratios create space for individualized instruction, personalized support, and meaningful engagement.
For students who are behind in schoolwork, we offer credit recovery and remedial learning options to help them catch up and stay on track. In addition to academics, students receive one-on-one guidance in areas like college planning, resume writing, and interview preparation as they plan for what comes next.
The Supportive, Therapeutic, Action-focused Recovery Room (STARR) Program is a short-term, structured support option for students who need additional recovery resources before fully transitioning into the classroom. STARR offers individualized instruction, added accountability, and focused recovery support to help students succeed both emotionally and academically.
Hope Academy offers, where appropriate, flexible learning options through PLATO, a trusted online platform for credit recovery and independent study. These courses allow students to make up credits or take classes not currently offered on campus, while working at their own pace in a structured, supportive setting.
Specific coursework is determined in collaboration with an academic advisor to meet each student’s graduation requirements and personal goals.
