Why We Are Here
J. B. Shelton Academy, located in Mobile, AL, operates a middle and high school covering grades 5-12 and is the “school of your dreams”. Each child works at his or her own pace. Some students complete two grades in one year; other students may require two years to complete one grade.
Our method is basically tutorial, and instruction is usually one-on-one. We are sensitive to differences in learning styles, as well as differences in educational goals. Our attendance policies are designed to accommodate family vacations, educational travel, or absences required by family emergencies.
Our school is in session Monday through Thursday, 8:30 A.M. to approximately 12:00 Noon. Arrival time is flexible, and students may leave when their work is completed. We believe that school hours are for school work, not for “killing time”!
Our teachers are experienced, well-qualified, dedicated, and caring. They understand that each child is special, differing from others mentally, emotionally, and physically; they treat each as unique in his or her abilities, talents, and interests.
