Our commitment & promise to you

The AMA's Vision team analyzed data from the National Center for Education Statistics to determine the average class sizes for elementary and high schools across all states.

We guarantee a student-to-teacher ratio of 1:12, regardless of age.

Advantages of Smaller Ratios:
Personalized Attention: Smaller ratios enable teachers to offer tailored instruction and support, catering to each student's individual learning preferences and requirements.
Enhanced Learning Environment: A reduced ratio can create a more concentrated and engaged classroom atmosphere, resulting in improved academic performance.
Fewer Behavioral Issues: Research indicates that smaller class sizes and lower ratios may lead to a decrease in behavioral challenges and a lower incidence of special education placements.
Lower Teacher Stress: Educators with smaller ratios often experience reduced stress and burnout, contributing to higher job satisfaction and retention rates.
Improved Supervision: Smaller ratios facilitate better oversight and safety for younger students.
Family Engagement Key Concepts and Definitions:
The Delaware Department of Education defines family engagement as the intentional, inclusive, community-specific outreach to involve parents, caretakers, families, and communities as partners in education.

Our Promise: We will not just serve our student’s but our educators will also serve as family liaisons for each family through an easily managed caseload.

FAMILY INVOLVEMENT Our families can thrive personally, professionally, academically, and spiritually.

What is a Micro School?  A microschool is a small, personalized learning environment that offers an alternative to the traditional public school system:
• Size - Microschools typically have fewer than 150 students, but some are as small as a handful.
• Learning environment - Microschools can be in homes, churches, storefronts, or other spaces.

They can be organized as private schools, homeschooling support centers, or in partnership with public schools.


OUR PROMISE:  Establish a MICRO SCHOOL right within the community where our families reside to enhance feelings of belonging and strengthen community ties.

Amazing Minds Academy, LLC is poised to become a Private Microschool located in the 4th district of Wilmington, Delaware (New Castle County).

The address is 801 N. West Street,  located within the Quaker Arts Apartments. Quaker Arts is part of HDC Midatlantic Residential Services, a nonprofit organization based in Pennsylvania.

This collaboration emerged from a mutual commitment to community values. More than 50% of our families reside at Quaker Arts, while the others live within walking distance or a short drive away. This strong connection aligns with HDC's mission to foster hope and opportunity for all residents, enabling them to achieve their full potential by creating, preserving, and enhancing affordable housing communities. 

Summer Learning will NOT be Lost!

We promise 45 LIVE!

A 45-15 year-round school calendar consists of students attending classes for 45 days, followed by a 15-day break, and this cycle is repeated throughout the year instead of having an extended summer vacation.

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

Definition: The 45-15 model is a year-round school schedule where students are in school for 45 days, then enjoy a 15-day break, continuing this pattern all year long.
Absence of a long summer break: In contrast to traditional school calendars, the 45-15 model replaces the lengthy summer vacation with more frequent, shorter breaks.

Possible advantages:

Mitigated summer learning loss: Advocates suggest that shorter breaks may help lessen the learning loss often associated with long summer holidays. • Increased enrichment opportunities: The brief breaks allow students to engage in enrichment activities or catch up on any missed assignments.
Family flexibility: Many families appreciate the ability to plan vacations and childcare around the shorter, more regular breaks.

We are collaborating with community centers, childcare facilities, and libraries to support parents during the 15-day breaks
