National Academy Foundation (NAF)
-
The National Academy Foundation (NAF) supports the development of young people toward personal and professional success - in high school, in higher education and throughout their careers. The Academies of Information Technology (AOIT) and the Academy of Business and Finance (AOBF) operate as 'schools within a school.'
In addition to their required classes, academy students combine specialized theme-based courses with real-world experience. Students learn skills and self-confidence and begin see the connections between what they learn in school and the larger world as they transition to adult life.
