Who We Serve
At Keystone Freedom Academy, our mission is simple: to bring freedom to learning for students who struggle with traditional education due to social, emotional, and behavioral needs. We support students in Grades five through twelve and up to 21 years of age.
We support students in making undesirable choices that led to being temporarily removed from their home school. With our built-in social/emotional class period we are able to help these students work through developing strategies to assist them in better decision making. We also offer students the option of making up lost credits in order to be eligible to graduate with their cohort.
