Welcome to West Michigan Academy of Environmental Science. Children who are drawn to science thrive at West Michigan Academy. From preschool through 12th-grade, we offer a complete, fully accredited education grounded in the disciplines and rewards of science.

Farmland, nature trails, forests, wetlands, prairies, and working gardens are among the outdoor classrooms on our 62-acre campus. Every day, students have an up-close, hands-on opportunity to study a wide variety of ecosystems. West Michigan Academy provides all students with the culture and environment needed to be successful.

Our students reap the additional benefits of programs and practices such as character education, accelerated learning, differentiated instruction, traditional discipline, accountability for one’s actions and a demonstration of mutual trust and respect among students, parents and teachers alike – all hallmarks of a charter school education.

At West Michigan Academy, our goal is clear: to develop both a successful student and responsible, conscientious adult.
