Dare to Dream Academy following the vision of Dr. Walter Malone Jr aims to prepare today’s generation for a brighter tomorrow. With intentional focus areas to lay the foundation for a successful life and a productive future. This is achieved through empowering, engaging, enhancing and increased exposure for our students.
Dare to Dream at its core is built on 5 pillars. Strengthening and aiding our students with their Spiritual, Physical, Mental, Emotional, and Social well-being. All of these elements come together to make a complete student with character and high self esteem. The students in turn are now equipped to be a shining example in their home, community, and schools.
Complimenting Dare to Dreams core principles, students also receive academic assistance. Using the IXL program to help teach and track student learning progress. As well as having field trips and career professionals speak to further explore the numerous opportunities in front of them.
Dare to Dream Academy is located at Canaan Christian Church. It operates on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month from 9am to 12 noon.
