History
All-Star Academy, a Whole Child Private School, was founded in 2018 by Brandy Simison, a Child Behavior Specialist who encountered a vast need for teaching children social-emotional skills, life-preparedness skills, and how to learn new information during her work in schools and with individual families.
All-Star Academy started as All-Star Kiddos, in 2016, as a Child Development Center providing specialized classes to parents to teach them how to get their child following a routine, taking initiative and tracking progress toward a goal. All-Star Kiddos went on to develop executive function skills, social skills, and targeted emotion regulation skills in children. Treating the whole family.
Today, All-Star Academy educates PreK-2 students in their schoolhouse in Preston. Additionally, All-Star Academy operates remote learning pods for local public schools at local child-focused fitness facilities and operates seasonal camps.
