Dear Students and Families,
Atlantic Collegiate Academy is only now beginning to hit its stride and become one of the premier academic athletic high schools in South Carolina!
This school is an exceptional educational opportunity for students in the Myrtle Beach area. ACA serves high school students in a safe, small, family-centered environment who seek the opportunity and challenge of a rigorous curriculum, high academic standards, and elite athletics, all while earning up to two years of tuition-free college credit.
ACA fosters positive relationships and create a collaborative school culture with students, parents, teachers, coaches and community members alike. With our focus on providing a safe environment, our students will have high standards of conduct and be expected to treat others with respect at all times. Our small, family-centered culture expects our staff to build positive relationships with their students and families, thereby strengthening bonds and opening lines of communication. Our rigorous curriculum requires every student to take honors level or dual-enrollment courses, which properly prepare them for college. With the support from our teachers, coaches and staff, each student will create a growth mindset and develop leadership skills that will empower them to create a fulfilling life in this ever-changing world.
One of the primary advantages that makes Atlantic Collegiate Academy unique is our split schedule. Half of our student body attends classes in the morning, while the other half of our students participate in their respective sports, work or pursue other opportunities. In the afternoon, the schedule switches. This gives our students the opportunity to complete their typical day by 4:00 p.m.
If you are looking for a small, safe, family-centered school that focuses on high academics and elite athletics, Atlantic Collegiate Academy is the place for you! I am looking forward to meeting with you to discuss this great opportunity. Come and join “The Armada!”
Sincerely,
Patrick Hartnett, Ph.D.
Principal
