At Grow Academy, we are guided by four strong beliefs

Every child can have a bright future

Our focus is to support our students in their growth, both academically and individually. We maintain small class sizes, and our unique blended learning model allows for learning across various environments and experiences – in the classroom, in the Learning Lab, in the garden, and through enrichment programs. We are continually reinterpreting the learning experience so that every child at Grow Academy is engaged, happy, and successful.

​

Every parent can be engaged

We could not do what we do without the support of our scholars' families. We rely on our involved, informed parents to advance our principles of academic achievement and wellness at home and in the Arvin community. We hold high expectations of our parents so that they are empowered to expect the same level of commitment from our school, teachers, and community leaders.

​

Every teacher can be successful

Our strong academic performance is directly tied to our talented and committed team of teachers, administrators, and staff. What we are doing is critically important – with a direct impact on Kern County and powerful implications for rural communities across the U.S. We also want learning to be fun! We strive to create a vibrant, supportive professional environment, so that staff and students thrive as part of the Grow Academy model.

​

Every community can flourish

Since 2011, we have demonstrated that high achievement is possible among students from rural areas who have often been overlooked by education reform efforts. Grow Academy is a source of pride for the community of Arvin and everyone involved in the effort.
