Jerry Scott Our granddaughter,Isabel Kennison, attended Mountain Laurel Academy for the past three years and graduated there from high school in May of 2024.
Isabel has grown immensely while attending the academy and we wanted to thank Meg Norris and Jeff Hites for their tireless effort and dedication working with all of the students in the school.
They, along with everyone else that works at the school, make it possible for the students that attend the academy, to get a good education and grow in every way to become better people.
We recommend anyone that is looking for a special opportunity for their child to contact Meg or Jeff to learn what a wonderful place the academy is .

Nadine Vaughan Our daughter has attended the majority of her high school years at this school and it was the BEST decision we have made! The teachers are amazing, caring and truly willing to go above and beyond. Additionally, the small class sizes allow for a truly individualized learning experience. I highly recommend this school!

jodi stancil deetlefs We love Mountain Laurel Academy! Our experience there has been exceptional. From the first meeting with the principal, I could tell how much she cared about her students, and that she was completely invested in helping kids reach their potential in education. The school atmosphere is very conducive to learning – with board room type tables and office chairs, as opposed to hard, wooden desks in a perfect row. There is a NO CELL PHONE rule which I love! They take the phones up when students arrive and give them back at the end of the day, which, in my opinion, alleviates so many unnecessary distractions.
We thoroughly appreciate the small classes, great student to teacher ratios, and the amazing field trips. My 9th grade daughter has done so many interesting things this year including learning ASL (American Sign Language), learning from a Grandmaster to play chess, taking self-defense classes, and having opportunities to enter art and writing competitions in the region. This is in addition to her top-notch 9th grade education classes including World History, Geometry, Biology, and English Composition.
My daughter loves her teachers; they invest so much time and energy into making their lessons interesting and challenging. If you are looking for a school that is academically focused, with opportunities for internships and dual enrollment into college, with qualified instructors who care about your students, and with an emphasis on preparing students to be independent learners ready for secondary education, then Mountain Laurel Academy could be just the place for you!
