Camelot Education Brings its Model to Vineland, NJ

(Vineland, NJ – August 3, 2015) – Students at Vineland High School who have fallen way behind in their progress because of social, emotional or behavioral reasons will now get extra support, thanks to a Vineland School District partnership with Camelot Education.

Camelot will manage a special program within the high school called Cunningham Academy, a program with a limit of 72 students, 12 of whom will be returning from off-campus private schools, saving the district thousands of dollars per student.

“We at Camelot Education are very proud to bring our educational model to Cunningham Academy,” said Camelot CEO Todd Bock. “We are passionate in our mission of working with vulnerable students and setting them on a course for success.”

The Vineland School District recognized that Cunningham needed to do a better job of ensuring that students in the program receive a meaningful education. Although the program is largely computer-based, Camelot’s model also deals with the student’s social and emotional needs and ability to focus on the work.

“As we have shown in dozens of school district in several states, we care deeply about our students, we have a culture that works to motivate good habits and we tap into students’ potential to achieve results,” Bock said.

Camelot is a leading national provider of alternative education programs. The organization is also experienced and culturally competent at serving areas with high Latino populations such as Camden, Lancaster, PA, and Houston. A majority of students in the Cunningham program are Latino.

Camelot will hold orientation sessions later this month for students returning to Cunningham for the new school year.
