At Face to Face Academy, we believe strongly that the vast majority of our students are more successful with in-person instruction. Thankfully, with our small school size and experienced staff, we are currently running a Hybrid Educational Model. We are pleased to be able to welcome students to attend school in the building for 2 days a week while Distance Learning for 2 days a week.
