Micanopy Academy saved my son from 3 years of misery. My son was diagnosed with Autism in 2014, and I truly believed he would be okay at our zoned district school, so I enrolled him. He went to class and did his work, but I saw a change in him. I finally got him to admit to me what his issue was. He couldn't stand going to school. Students would tease him. Students were doing drugs in the bathrooms. Fights were breaking out everywhere, and teachers would criticize him for always asking to go to the restroom. I searched for a small, accredited school where he wouldn't feel intimidated. We found Micanopy Academy. They accepted him with open arms and made him feel welcome. He thrived at Micanopy Academy, received straight A's, and was accepted into Santa Fe College as a dual enrollment student. I don't believe my son would have survived high school if it wasn't for Micanopy Academy. I am forever thankful to Micanopy Academy.
