Tips:
Based on the Academies’ philosophy, “children learn best when they experience success and the classroom is just a beginning,” the following tips are offered to you to try with your child:
  • Ask your child to show you the “Student Weekly Progress Report”
  • Tell your child that you recognize and encourage any special skills and talents
  • Urge your child to work hard at the Academy, listen to the teacher, and follow Academy rules
  • Provide time, space and materials for your child to do homework
  • Listen to your child and talk about his/her day at the Academy
  • Praise good work
  • Contact the teacher if your child is having difficulty with Academy studies
  • Take your child to the library, museums, and other educational sites

The HOPE Academies and Riverside Academy are community schools established under Chapter 3314 of the Revised Code. These schools are public schools and students enrolled in and attending the schools are required to take proficiency tests and other examinations prescribed by law. In addition, there may be other requirements for students at the schools that are prescribed by law. Students who have been excused from the compulsory attendance law for the purpose of home education as defined by the Administrative Code shall no longer be excused for that purpose upon their enrollment in a community school. For more information about this matter contact the school administration or the Ohio Department of Education.
