Wellmont Academy - The Leader in Hybrid Private School Education

The Leader in Hybrid Education

Welcome to Wellmont Academy

We are a Christ-centered hybrid private school that operates a 2-day and a 3-day per week classroom environment for K-12 students and partners with families to provide direction, encouragement and accountability for students. We provide curriculum, weekly assignments and comprehensive assistance for students preparing for college. Take a look at our course listings and extracurricular activities in the menu above for details.

We are conveniently located on the the beautiful campus of Northeast Presbyterian Church

Congratulations to the winners of our 2017/18 Writing Contest!

I enjoy Wellmont because of our class and the playground. I like making crafts in class and my favorite thing on the playground is the swings. I also like to do math and grammar at home with my mom.

Wellmont is great! I’ve gone to Wellmont for five years and every year, I’ve loved it. I’m not the only one either. Wellmont is not like public school, and it never will be. We have friendly teachers, great lessons, and spotless classrooms. Without Wellmont, I would wake up at 6am to ride a stinky school bus for 2 hours. Then I would go to school for eight hours. Then I would come home and have more work! I thank Jesus for the amazing teachers and staff, but most importantly, I thank him that Wellmont is Jesus. When you walk into Wellmont, you feel loved. Thank you Jesus for Wellmont!

Lily Byers (7-8)

I like Wellmont Academy, because everybody is so relaxed and I don't feel the pressure I felt at other schools ... although the work at Wellmont still challenges my brain. When I wake up in the morning, I feel excited to go to school instead of dreading it, which is the way I felt at other schools. I like going to Wellmont two days a week because it gives me plenty of time to do the work they have assigned and the work my parents assign. I'm also able to explore other things that I'm interested in pursuing, without hours of homework at night weighing me down.

Biblical Perspective

All material, from classic literature and philosophy to the sciences is expressly and purposefully synthesized into a biblical worldview. We believe the Word of God to be the truth and in all that we do, we include this doctrine of biblical faith.

Integrated Subjects

History and geography hold hands as students discover world history chronologically. Literature spans parallel time periods, as does governmental studies. Writing is both creative and standardized.

Qualified Teachers

All the members of our staff are purposefully chosen, trained in their field of study, and have demonstrated a passion for education and a love for their students. Our teachers are available to help students all week long.

Group Learning

Class averages at Wellmont Academy range from 5-15 students, enabling teachers to better facilitate learning in the classroom, as well as through messaging, online discussion groups, and group video sessions.

Latest Technology

We use Schoology® to make interaction easy between teachers, parents and students. Our online portal presents a crystal clear picture of assignments, grades and coursework.

Parental Control

We actively partner with homeschooling parents (FLEX families) as well as with full-time private school students. For our homeschooling families, directing your homeschool experience is left up to you. We simply walk alongside you, joining hands within the context of a classroom, providing accountability for the courses you take with us.

We Work with Parents to Provide the Right Environment for Academic Success

Accountability

Our program makes students accountable to a non-parent teacher, giving the parent a key ally in the schooling process. Students also become accountable to each other through group projects and activities.

Daily Structure

Wellmont students work from a daily agenda so there's never a question about what needs to be done. Our online platform guides parents and students through course material, assignments, due dates and exams.

Grace

Wellmont provides an educational framework to some homeschooling families. If you homeschool your children, you are your child's main teacher, and we respect your role as their advocate. We simply provide a framework and accountability for their work.

A Note From A Student...

Lauren Marolf, 12th Grade

"Since 6th grade I have been attending Wellmont. The hours I have spent at home with my family - I wouldn’t trade them for the world. On Mondays and Wednesdays I am with my school friends, which I love, but the bonding that I have received and the close relationships I have formed with my siblings and parents on the days I am not at school are days that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

The flexibility and structure that Wellmont offers is extremely unique. Students are given the opportunity and responsibility of working out their own schedules, as far as when and how we get our homework done. At the same time, the accountability of assignments with due dates, teachers who care and keep up with us, and our parental presence at home, all drive us to excel to the best of our capabilities.

When you have friends that are excelling, it drives you to excel too!

The atmosphere of Wellmont is probably my favorite part about going there. As in any school, we have close friends. What’s unique is that we are given the opportunity to make friends not only with kids in our own grade, but kids from other grades too, because we attend mixed grade classes. What that does, I feel, is it creates an environment, where kids not only make friends, but we make a second family. I will be forever grateful for the friendships and the knowledge that I will take with me beyond graduation day."

The Best is Yet to Come!

These are some of the things were working on in 2018 to provide more opportunities for our students.

Accreditation

Wellmont Academy is a current candidate for accreditation through Florida Coalition of Christian Private Schools (FCCPSA), and is looking forward to a future under the national accrediting agency, Advanced Ed. Accreditation with a nationally recognized accrediting agency increases our students' chances of acceptance at colleges or universities of their choice.
