A SCHOOL WITHIN A SCHOOL
Lyceum provides a thoughtful place where teachers, students and parents can develop essential habits of the mind creating life-long learners.
About
The Lyceum Academy is neither ordinary nor elitist. It is a rigorous, interdisciplinary program designed for the adventuresome student in pursuit of an academic journey “off the beaten path”.
|
Trips
While most schools offer AP and Honors classes, the Lyceum goes beyond that by also integrating these courses through projects, oral presentations, and travel opportunities.
|
Fundraisers
Fundraising is offered to offset each trip’s costs. We have NEVER left a student behind because of financial difficulties. In addition to our annual haunted house, Lyceum Academy also hosts a yard sale and partners with several third-party companies over the course of the year where students are encouraged to try their luck at selling products such as cookie dough and coupon books to friends, family and neighbors.
