About Us
FUTURISTIC LEARNING
Haile Academy of Higher Learning provides an enriched, diverse and futuristic learning environment for our students. Founded in 2017 , our Private School is located in Clay County, Florida and reflects the various backgrounds and cultures of the community. Our curriculum encompasses the integration of technology, as students use this technology along with life skills learning to meet academic and personal goals.
We cater to students who are ESE, Gifted, General Ed or just looking for a quality education with an alternative option. We run strictly on scholarship funding, so families must be able to meet the tuition requirement for enrollment.
