TWO ACADEMIES MISSION STATEMENT
TWO Academies is a single-gender program that focuses on the needs of adolescents and reduces the pressures of the middle school years. In separated classes for the school day, boys and girls experience a rich educational opportunity where defining the unique genius of each child is the goal. Parents play a vital role in this magnet program.
OVERVIEW OF TWO ACADEMIES
The TWO Academies began in August 2004 with 6th grade. In 2005 it added the 7th grade. Eighth grade was added in 2006-2007. The TWO Academies is currently located in the "D" Hallway at Dent Middle School. The lead teacher's office is also located on this hallway.

The admission process includes an application, standardized test scores in reading and math (we look for "Met" and above), teacher reference form, current grades (Average and above), reading level as indicated by current teacher, interview and writing sample.
