Preakness Academy
The Commission, in our efforts to meet the growing needs of the county, is very excited to announce that Preakness Academy in Wayne has officially opened and is taking student enrollments.

Preakness Academy is as an alternative middle school for grades 5-8 general and special education (not including BD) students. The school is able to enroll up to 40 pupils.

Potential students are those who may benefit from:

• - A specialized learning environment with a personalized touch.
• - Individual and group sessions with a counselor and/or behaviorist.
• - A more structured and meaningful learning environment for long-term suspensions and home instruction.

The Commission has purchased the most recent modular furniture to foster a collaborative environment (see below). In addition, the NRESC will continue to facilitate building walkthroughs as requested by school districts.
