A tuition-free K–8 public charter school in Tooele, Utah

Scholar Academy has been so great for our family and my kids needs. We love that they have extra support within the classrooms and out. My child entered kindergarten this year and naturally is a bit more anxious and cautious. When some of his anxieties became clear they would not settle in, I met with the behavioral specialist and we created some supplants both at home and school. Within a month of meeting he almost never needed the supports anymore and his confidence had excelled. He has learned skills in kindergarten that I don’t think he would have learned without the structure and learning environment created in his classroom.

On top of the academic pieces, the school itself has a great warm-welcoming environment. Parents volunteer time and services to help with activities and events and it creates a community feel. They have great events throughout the year and a little something for everyone to be passionate or excited about.

From (my student): “I like the outside field and play area. The food is yummy. I feel safe there.”

Scholar Academy has changed the course of my son’s life and learning. Through Autism and ADHD, they’ve been at the forefront of his education. We love Scholar for their morals and the love they have for learning AND their student body. Thank you, Scholar Academy.

I love how they always strive to improve as a school and as a family. They always want what’s best for the kids and are willing to change things up if that’s what’s best. Every time I go to the school there is something new and improved. I also love how inclusive the environment is. The majority of the teachers are very good at including each and every student. Scholar Academy makes it a fun place to learn!

Scholar is the best school I’ve been to. They have the best teachers and they care about my learning. I love the lunch too.

Scholar has been a game changer for my neurodiverse kids. The leveled learning is so helpful for the kids to succeed and not get left behind. We love Scholar Academy!

So many things that I like about Scholar Academy. I love that you have a HOPE Squad. Suicide awareness is so important and holds a special place in my heart. I feel like the kids have so many more opportunities and choices going to Scholar. The teachers and other staff are absolutely amazing and treat everyone so well. Those are just a few things I like about Scholar Academy.

I am a previous student for the Scholar Owls. My siblings and I have all been to Scholar Academy and we absolutely loved it. I was a grade behind where I was supposed to be at. Scholar Academy does level learning and they do what is best for their students. They put me where I fit the best and it worked amazing. All the teachers, support staff, and faculty work well together. One of my other favorite teachers is Mr. Hall. Mr. Hall is a funny teacher and can make the learning easy. They all want what is best for the students. The teachers are easy to work with and help resolve any questions or problems. My family and I have been a part of the school since it opened. I am proud to have been part of such an amazing school.

Scholar Academy is a safe place to learn and grow with the best teachers and eager students. The teachers have always been welcoming and kind to past students, like myself. The leveled classes gave me the chance to jump up a grade and not be stuck in a classroom with curriculum I already surpassed. Scholar set me up for academic success in high school, as I am now graduating with a 3.5 GPA and starting at Westminster University fall 2024!

Scholar Academy is hands down one of the best schools in the county! I love how accommodating the school is with my son & his anxiety. This year he has had pretty bad separation anxiety, but the breathing techniques his teacher taught him have not only worked at school but at home as well. I love how Scholar challenges the students based on their level of learning. The staff is amazing and so friendly. I know my son is always in good hands, and as a mom, that’s all I could ask for!

I love my school because it has learning for advanced classes, low level classes, or right in the middle classes. I also love my school because it has a Spanish speaking class, although I may not have a Hispanic family, all I care is that Spanish speaking families will be able to communicate with one another more clearly. It is also good for other American families that might want to learn it. Another thing that I love about Scholar is that it has a playground for all ages and that it has a field as a multiple option play area if you might not want to play on the playground. Lastly, I LOVE all of the teachers there so far.
