Team Academy consists of your child’s core teachers—Math, Science, History and English. Teaming gives students and teachers the opportunity to belong to a smaller community where members can be more supportive of each other and share common goals. We can be contacted at 578-7030 or via email.

Team Academy News
Hello everyone! We are excited to get back into the building and the swing of things. Our team will spend the first week issuing lockers and going through the policies and procedures of the school. Your child(ren) will need the school supplies listed on the IRM School Supply List. Please reach out to Mrs. Smith if you have any questions/issues obtaining these items. The school will provide an agenda and Student Handbook on the first week of school. If it is lost, it can be replaced for $5 at the School Store, which is open during homeroom.

Communication with Team Academy Teachers
All teachers on Team Academy view communication as an essential element in the success of our students. There are many ways in which you can communicate with the teachers if you have a question, comment, concern, or compliment! Our emails are listed above, that is the best way to contact us. The student agenda is also a simple form of contact that can be used. Additionally, you can call the school (578-7030) and ask to speak to any Teacher from Team Academy to schedule a team conference. We are available on Tuesdays, Thursday, and Fridays from 9:30 AM- 10:15 AM.
