About Harvard Avenue Performance Academy

Welcome to Harvard Performance Academy and Harvard Performance High School where we strive to make learning engaging and fun! I have been at Harvard Performance for 5 years and feel very fortunate to be the principal of the school with such wonderful students, a motivated and dedicated staff, and parents who work with us to create an environment that facilitates student learning through a wide variety of innovative and collaborative methods and activities.

Our administration and staff are highly committed to providing the most rewarding education possible and making the process of learning an enjoyable experience. Your child’s education is our top priority!! We look forward to working together to make your child’s educational experience a positive one. Our approach in academics is data driven with differentiated instruction, a strong focus on students as individuals with the understanding of their strengths and improving their fundamental skills. Additionally we are excited to announce Harvard Performance is offering 9th grade where students can continue to receive the support from our staff, to be academically challenged and inspired with the overall goal to build a culture of academic excellence.

Parent involvement can take many forms. Research demonstrates that parent involvement is the Number One factor in determining student success in school. At Harvard Performance parent involvement means getting your child to school everyday and on time, being present to monitor homework ( Monday Through Thursday), being informed about progress and grades, and having your child read to you daily, this builds their vocabulary and emphasizes the importance of reading. These opportunities are all important to student success and can provide you with a first hand look at the culture of expectations established at Harvard Performance Academy. Together we can create an exceptional learning community that prepares our students for a bright and successful future.
