Steinmetz Career and Leadership Academy
The Steinmetz Career and Leadership Academy (SCALA), is a house of the high school but located on the Steinmetz School campus.  The program, open to 9th and 10th graders, utilizes non-traditional methods to deliver instruction and is specifically designed for students who have had difficulty staying on task and learning by traditional means and are at risk of not being successful in high school.  The academy presents a unique opportunity to work one-on-one with a teacher and coach while primarily utilizing technology to work independently and at an individual pace.
