educating the mind - Academics

The learning environment at Tyburn Academy is distinctly different; having a direct impact on academic achievement. 

Growing in Wisdom

We allow a natural maturity process that builds confidence and dignity in each individual student; encouraging them to rise to a level of excellence along with their peers. Our rigorous course load exceeds NY State standards and reflects a methodology that encourages the students to actively participate in the classroom. Teachers utilize their talents, wisdom and reason to create the best learning environment for their particular subject.

Our teachers encourage students to develop independence and responsibility for their work while also offering students the individual attention and assistance they need to succeed. Our classrooms are a familial place where each student is known by his or her peers and teachers.

An academic program rich in classic literature, philosophy, rhetoric, and Latin makes a difference in the college application process.
