Century Academy Registration Underway, Announces Scholarship Deadline

July 17, 2016

Century Academy has announced a September 1 deadline to apply for scholarships for their new private, non-profit K-12 school in Century for the 2016-17 school year.

The school specializes in teaching children diagnosed with Autism and other related learning disabilities. The current construction project to renovate the old elementary school building on Hecker Road is well under way and will be completed to welcome students starting school in August.

“We are very excited to bring this old building back to life and to be able to enrich the Century community. The students will absolutely love the rainforest and ocean themes. It is a beautiful place but one that is carefully designed to enhance the educational experience for children with autism and other learning disorders,” says Barbara Barber, director of Century Academy.

Potential parents need to understand the registration and application process must be completed as early as possible for scholarships designated for Florida students with learning disabilities for the next term. August is the beginning of the school year but it is typical to have students transfer in after the school year has started.

At the present time there are two types of scholarships available, the John McKay scholarship and the Gardiner scholarship.  These scholarships generally cover the cost of tuition for a student attending a private school.  Century Academy is now actively in the second phase of registration for the John McKay scholarship. This scholarship has a September 1 deadline to file an intent notice.

Ms. Barber will meet prospective parents to actively register students at the school at 440 East Hecker Road Monday through Friday by appointment only. Parents can call the Pensacola location at (850) 437-5560 Monday through Thursday to schedule an appointment.

Century Academy is a subsidiary of East Hill Academy in Pensacola.
