At Academy of the Redwoods, every student’s journey is a pathway. As the college acceptance letters begin to arrive, each one is more than an achievement. This pathway is shaped by growth, resilience, and opportunity. Students are encouraged to share their acceptances, which are then proudly displayed on the school’s "Pathways to Possibilities" wall and celebrated across the community. Each name, each acceptance, and each story represents what’s possible when students are supported, challenged, and inspired.
Welcome —
About Us

Grounded in the values of Respect, Responsibility, and Choice, Academy of the Redwoods emphasizes independence, academic confidence, and strong relationships through personalized support and a tiered system focused on Time Management, Organization, Engagement, and Study Skills.
With fewer than 200 students, dedicated staff, and strong partnerships with families and the community, Academy of the Redwoods provides an inclusive and academically challenging environment where students can thrive.
