This critical leadership role is central to advancing Pulaski Academy's vision of being a "Leader in Academic Innovation."

Pulaski Academy is a distinguished independent, non-sectarian, co-educational college preparatory school serving students from Preschool (2.5 years old) through 12th Grade. Since its founding in 1971, PA has been committed to "inspiring students to explore, create, contribute, and achieve," fostering excellence in academics, fine arts, and athletics. The school stands out for its unique blend of traditional rigor and progressive approaches, including a Reggio Emilia-inspired "Cubs" program for early childhood and a strong emphasis on 21st-century skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, and cross-cultural understanding. With a remarkable 8:1 student-teacher ratio and a 100% college acceptance rate, Pulaski Academy consistently empowers its students to reach their full potential.
