Grade Level Advancement Starts Today … Online or in Lafayette

Lafayette Academy”s Middle School Tutoring programs enhance students’ proficiency in mathematics, reading, and writing. Our meticulously tailored programs amalgamate practical evaluations with captivating pedagogy to guarantee sustained advancement in students’ academic capabilities. By integrating cutting-edge technology with exceptional, caring educators, we help students elevate their foundational knowledge and grasp current concepts. We regularly assess our students to ensure their advancement.

We are not an “over-the-top” learning center with an “Ivy League or bust” mentality. Our Middle School Tutoring programs help each student reach his or her academic potential.  We nurture our students to help them reach their highest levels, but we don’t pressure every student to become the next Bill Gates! Still, our students will enter high school on a faster track, and many will be ready for AP courses.
