 Information About Chicopee Academy Program
School Mission Statement

The Chicopee Academy will provide a strong standards based academic program for both regular and
special education high school students who have not met with success within the traditional high school setting.
Our students will through individualized clinical and educational supports identify goals and objectives that
will support them to grow and develop into young adults who are able to contribute to the communities in which they live.

Our school will be characterized by a creative, innovative approach to education.  We will have a strong commitment to
standards based, content area instruction.  The faculty and staff will also incorporate experiential learning
opportunities to provide our students with real life applications to their learning.
While our goal is to reintegrate students back into their schools of origin, the Chicopee Academy will
identify individualized educational and clinical Goals for each student.  Our program will offer a continuum
of services; we will have both short term and long term students depending on their needs and individual
situations.  Our commitment will always be to the least restrictive learning environment for each student.  While
some students will attend a full day at the Chicopee Academy, some students attend classes both at
our site, and they access additional classes at their referring high school.

Our staff and faculty are committed to student success and realizing that each student is unique. 
The school is strongly committed to working as a team to support each student. 
Through close work with our students, their families, and community partners we will be able to
develop a lifelong love of learning in our students.
