Future Educators Academy

Future Educators Academy (FEA) is a college partnership lab school that prepares future elementary and special education teachers through dual enrollment using accelerated, hands-on learning.

FEA includes a specialized transfer agreement with University of Mary Washington, so students can graduate with a bachelor's degree and earn their teacher licensure two years after high school graduation.
