LIGHTHOUSE ACADEMY EAGLE VILLAGE

Lighthouse Academy Eagle Village is a public charter school that is part of the Lighthouse Academy school district, located in Hersey, MI with about 65 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 12th Grade. With about 3 teachers, Lighthouse Academy Eagle Village has a student/teacher ratio of about 21:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Lighthouse Academy at Eagle Village is a specialized educational facility located in Hersey, Michigan, that operates as a charter school within the Eagle Village campus. Eagle Village itself is a well-established residential treatment and support center for youth facing significant behavioral, emotional, or academic challenges. The academy is designed to serve students who may have struggled in traditional public school settings, providing a therapeutic and structured environment that integrates academic instruction with the clinical support services offered by the surrounding campus.

The school places a strong emphasis on personalized learning and character development, aiming to help students overcome personal obstacles and re-engage with their education. By maintaining a low student-to-teacher ratio and collaborating closely with residential counselors, Lighthouse Academy fosters a supportive atmosphere where students can work toward academic recovery, social-emotional growth, and high school graduation. The program is tailored to equip these students with the necessary life skills and academic credentials to transition successfully into adulthood or back into their home school districts.
