Growth Mindsets Begin at Young Scholars Academy
When was the last time you heard that it’s okay to fail? At Young Scholars Academy, we are creating a movement of young scholars who are more focused on process rather than outcome. While nobody likes failure or rejection, we’ve learned that success–more often than not–lies on the other side of those setbacks. Our future generation needs to be encouraged to learn and explore without fear. This is the essence of the Growth Mindset.
OUR MISSION
Using our proud traditions and diverse community, Young Scholars Academy prepares all students to become creative, ethical, and critical thinkers for lifelong success in a global society.

• Every scholar will become his or her best ethical and intellectual self.
• Every educator will inspire students to strive for academic excellence and strength of character.
• Every scholar will persevere to reach his or her highest social, emotional, and academic potential.
• Every educator will leverage failure and mistakes as opportunities for the scholars to learn and grow.
• Every educator’s objective is to make the process of learning fun and exciting again.
• Every classroom will develop engaging and professional learning communities to support the Growth Mindset.
OUR BELIEFS
We believe…
