Pepin Academies are Florida-based not-for-profit, independent, public charter schools specifically designed for students with learning and learning related disabilities in grades 3-12 and a Transition Program for students 18-22 years-of-age.

All students enrolled in our school must have an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). To meet the diverse, unique needs of our students, we utilize a therapeutic educational model, which focuses on the whole child and combines standard Florida curriculum, delivered by teachers who are dually certified in their content area and ESE. Our therapeutic educational environment includes Mental Health Counselors, Social Workers, Speech-Language Pathologists, an Occupational Therapist, ESE Specialists, and a registered Nurse on all campuses.

We follow a modified academic calendar which provides more frequent breaks throughout the school year and reduces the potential impacts of summer learning loss. We have smaller class sizes, with approximately a 15:1 student: teacher ratio with paraprofessionals added in all elementary and access point classrooms. We also offer many extracurricular opportunities for our students including athletics, clubs, and culinary and performing arts.
