Our Mission Statement
Helping Adolescents Restore Balance Order & Respect
We create balance in our lives when we achieve an equal condition of emotional, spiritual, and mental stability. FHA assists students in cultivating essential qualities that will help them become balanced young people. These qualities of academic, spiritual, physical, and emotional stability strengthen students as they strive to know themselves, their strengths and weaknesses in behavior, ability, and motivation.
The characteristics which trigger this balance and that we cultivate at FHA are belonging, independence, mastery, and generosity.
Scholarships Available
McKay Scholarship
Florida’s school choice programs ensure that no child will be left behind by allowing parents to choose the best educational setting—public or private—for their child. The McKay Scholarships provided over 22,000 Florida students with special needs the opportunity to attend a participating private school during the school year.
Step Up For Students
