Falls Lake Academy Mission Statement
Falls Lake Academy seeks to create a challenging learning environment while striving to meet the academic, social, and emotional needs of our 21st century learners to prepare them for citizenship, leadership, and success in a rapidly changing world. Our school promotes a safe, orderly, caring and supportive community. Each student's self-esteem is fostered by positive relationships with students and staff. We strive to have our parents, teachers, and community members actively involved in our student's learning.
Falls Lake Academy opened its doors in 2013 as a public charter school in Southern Granville County in North Carolina. We currently serve approximately 960 students in grades K-11. Each year we will "grow a grade level" until we reach K-12. Optimal class size for each grade level is 20 students. Falls Lake Academy is a project based learning school.
