New Private-School Program Will Set Students on
Path to Education – and Career – Success
Enrollment is now open for the 2022-2023 school year at Grand
Canyon Private Academy (GCPA), a new full-time, private-college and
career preparatory school for Arizona students in grades K-10. GCPA
will serve students starting in the fall of this year with plans to
grow by grade level each year to eventually serve grades K-12.
An integrated support team of school leaders, teachers, academic
coaches, and counselors will offer unique, student-centric learning
opportunities through personalized education and strong community
relationships. Students and families can access the virtual
learning system at any time, from anywhere where an internet
connection exists. And with the school’s unique career and
college-focused approach, students can pair a solid academic
foundation with hands-on learning experiences.
“Our mission is to cultivate and inspire a community of critical
thinkers and future leaders through a student-centric instructional
approach, empowering students to shape their own path, while
pursuing their passion,” said Executive Director Bouchra Bouanani.
“Is your child ready to commit?”
Starting in 7th grade, students at GCPA can take career-focused
electives and explore options in high-demand fields such as
Business and IT. Students also have the opportunity to pursue dual
enrollment pathways to potentially earn an associate degree
alongside their high school diploma. Discovering professional
interests while still in high school can help students prepare for
success after graduation.
According to labor market data from Indeed.com, more than 85,000
job openings posted in Arizona in the last year require an
education level less than a bachelor’s degree. And with 900k
Arizona residents carrying nearly $31 billion in student loan debt,
GCPA is opening at a time when families need learning options that
will strengthen students’ future educational prospects.
Grand Canyon Private Academy will offer bilingual education and
cultivate a sense of community to inspire students to become
productive contributors to our society. And curriculum will be
designed to engage students with critical thinking skills that
prepare them to succeed beyond the classroom. Financial aid will be
available through Arizona’s Empowerment Scholarship Account.
GCPA’s curriculum is provided by Stride, Inc., an education
leader with more than 20 years of experience delivering online
education to students across the country. Stride has worked with
schools and districts across all 50 states to help develop local
solutions to meet personalized online and blended learning
goals.
Enrollment at Grand Canyon Private Academy is now open for the
