About Pruette SCALE Academy

Pruette SCALE Academy is a public alternative school in High Point, North Carolina, run by the Guilford County Schools district. The school is mostly for high school students, especially those who need a lot of help with their schoolwork, behavior, or emotions in a very structured setting. There aren't many students at Pruette SCALE Academy, so the student-teacher ratio is very low, about 1:1. Many of the students at the school have special needs, and the school is a good representation of the community around it. We don't share math and reading proficiency data with the public because students usually set their own learning goals instead of following standardized testing standards. The school is paid for by the state and local school systems, which also offer extra help when needed. Most of the time, standard tests like the SAT aren't the main focus, but this depends on what each student wants to do.
