Why Momentum? It’s simple, really.

There are many reasons why you should become a Momentum Family, the main being the fact we meet families where they’re at. We do this by learning each scholar’s unique needs and abilities and partnering with families to make sure that their scholar’s learning is individualized and goes beyond the walls of our schools. We do this because we care about every scholar’s success, and we believe everyone should have a stake.

Does Momentum Academy offer a virtual learning option?

Yes! See the MOCAP homeschool program. We also provide short-term virtual learning for scholars/with Covid-19 or other major illnesses.

Are Momentum scholars provided with technology to use at school?

Yes! All Momentum scholars are provided with a school Chromebook which they use during class to participate in blended-learning and supplemental reading and math programs.
Our upper academy (middle school age) scholars also use their school Chromebooks for academic research and to complete their homework assignments.

How large are the class sizes at Momentum Academy? What is the student/teacher ratio?

At Momentum Academy, our goal is to ensure that each scholar in the classroom is given access to excellent learning opportunities. Our instructional model allows for a student/teacher ratio of approximately 20:1 for core subjects in Lower Academy and up to 25:1 for Upper Academy. This model also provides time for individualized practice using blended learning programs. If we experience an increase in class size, TAs may be brought in to assist teachers.

Are the scholars required to wear a uniform? What is the uniform?

All scholars are required to wear a school uniform consisting of navy blue pants, shorts, or skirt and a Momentum Academy polo shirt. Our elementary-age scholars wear a purple polo shirt, while our upper academy scholars wear a white polo shirt. Scholars should wear solid color shoes and may wear sweaters or sweatshirts in solid, school colors.

We require our scholars to wear a uniform to help keep their focus on their academic tasks. Our uniforms unite us as a school community and promote school unity.

Is before and after school care available? What are the hours and the cost?

Yes! Momentum Academy does provide before and after-school care options for our scholars.

Our before-school care program is run and supervised by our school staff members. Scholars may be dropped off for before-care beginning at 6:30 am. After-school care is available, on-site, at each Momentum Academy campus and is open from the end of the school day until 6:00 pm.

There is a fee for both before and after-school care. We work with families to ensure that their scholars are able to access any services they need regardless of the cost.

Why does Momentum Academy have a shortened school day on Fridays?

We have a shortened schedule on Fridays to accommodate weekly teacher and staff professional development. Our staff members receive additional training and development each week and are also given the opportunity to collaborate with their colleagues during that time.
