PRINCIPAL's welcome

I am so proud to be the principal at this growing school in Chico. Raising my own family here, I recognize the special place it can be and hope for the students I serve the same I do for my own children: the best possible.

Here at STEP UP Academy we focus on students Kindergarten through 8th grade and their academic, social, and emotional preparation for high school. We do so by challenging them to explore and practice their abilities in all subjects, through the lens of science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics.

Our intimate staff strives every day to meet the students where they are and encourages them forward to where they need to be. We meet Common Core, Next Generation Science, and the up-and-coming History standards with the use of online sources, classroom instruction, project based learning, and our newly adopted STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) focused curriculum of Project Lead the Way (PLTW).

STEP UP Academy offers physical education for all our students at least four times a week, opportunities to learn in cross-grade groups, and work to make the most of every moment spent here at our school.

Our Vision: Provide an interactive learning environment that promotes inquiry and connects students to future life expectations and aspirations.

Our Mission: Empower learners to recognize their unlimited potential to become contributing members in a multicultural, 21st century society through Career Technical Education Pathways.

This is what drives us, this is what informs us, this is what sets the bar for us to attain!

I am so glad you have found us and encourage you to come visit to see the special learning environment we are constantly building.
