Cupola Academy
Description
Cupola Academy is a secular, nonprofit learning community for ages 4–18. Located on 10 picturesque acres in Malvern, we bring education to life!
What if school looked more like life? Cupola Academy (CA) has been pioneering the field of Partnership Education for over 50 years. Rooted in the belief that youth are naturally curious, CA offers part-time, in-person programs that support homeschooling families who want something more than school - and something more than going it alone! Guided by expertly trained Facilitators, youth engage in applied academics, with an emphasis on process over product, hands-on learning, and collaboration. For families seeking a dynamic, forward-thinking, hybrid educational environment, CA serves as a one-stop shop!
Cupola Academy is designed for families who are seeking an intellectually rich atmosphere that promotes a growth mindset, encourages lifelong learning, and emphasizes social and environmental justice. These values are fostered in all of CA's programs.

Our daughters have gained so much from attending Cupola Academy in the last year and a half! They work in small groups, learning/practicing not just the academic skills they’ll need in life, but how to work with others through exploring topics that matter to the young people and affect the greater world. The facilitators are thoughtful, dedicated, and support the growth of each young person that attends program. Plus, they have fun!
