See below a brief description of our classes:

Kindergarten Program: The kindergarten IBI integrated class is a full day program that maintains a low 1:3 teacher-student ratio with integrated IBI therapy. This class is designed for children who are school aged but who are not yet ready to participate in a typical classroom setting.

Primary Program: Our primary classes maintain a 1:6 teacher-student ratio to better meet our students individual learning needs. The focus of the primary class is to help students build strong foundational knowledge of the core subjects: reading, spelling, writing, language and mathematics through evidence based Direct Instruction programing.

Junior Program: Our junior classes maintain a 1:8 teacher-student ratio as students are more able to follow direction and work independently. The focus of the junior class is to expand and apply the concepts and skills they learned in the primary grades.

Intermediate Program: Our intermediate classes maintain a 1:12 teacher - student ratio where students are preparing for learning at the secondary level. Students are engaged in inquiry- based learning where they make predications, research information using technology, and guide their own learning. Intermediate subject matter becomes increasingly more complex and students study history and geography.

At Phoenix Private Academy, we have an annual rate for tuition that is billed monthly. This is also depending on whether additional costs are needed such as EA Support 1:1 , ABA/IBI Therapy, After Care, Before Care, etc.

The final cost of tuition would be provided once the baseline assessment with PPA is completed and the appropriate program decided.

If you have any questions about tuition costs, please contact us via the " contact us" form. We would be happy to set up a phone call or zoom meeting to discuss any questions you may have.

After you submit your application form on the Phoenix website, our Executive Assistant will contact you to set up a virtual or in person meeting with our Principal, Miss Maja Maricic, to answer any questions you may have.

If you wish to continue with the assessment process following the meeting with our Principal, we will require our registration form to be filled out for informational purposes, and get you in touch with our Intake Coordinator to schedule the initial intake meeting to discuss booking the assessment and trial days. The purpose of this is to determine the best course of action, in terms of program and placement for the student.

Once the baseline assessment is completed and the recommendation is provided, Phoenix will be in contact with you ( pending that is the route of placement decided) to provide you with our Enrollment Package.

Our enrollment package then must be filled out and handed back to administration.

** Please note that submitting an application form, or filling out the registration form during the intake process, does not guarantee enrollment at Phoenix Private Academy**

**If you have any questions regarding our application process, please contact administration at phoenixprivateacademy@gmail.com **

Phoenix Private Academy uses the principals of ABA ( Applied Behavior Analysis) in all our classrooms. ABA is an evidence - based strategy to help students develop their communication skills, language skills, social skills, work habits, motor skills, learning and academic skills.

Positive reinforcement is the heart of ABA. At Phoenix Private Academy we use a token system and verbal praise to reward desired outcomes and goals. Students have two opportunities each day to use their tokens that they have earned for their desired rewards ( Electronics, Wii, playtime or their choice of toys).

At PPA we also teach our students how to become good citizens; students who are caring individuals that show kindness and respect to individuals.

Our social skills class, that is attended each week, helps the students in their journey of being good citizens. Values Education plays an important role in child development.

Our core values at Phoenix Private Academy are Respect, Responsibility, Collaboration, Persistence, and Inclusivity.
