From the Principal’s desk….
Greetings and Welcome to a brand new school year at Howard Learning Academy, Cumberland County’s premier non-traditional school. As the principal of HLA, I am excited about the new school year where we are dedicated to creating culture, changing mindsets and cultivating character.
Our mission at Howard Learning is to inspire our youth through a strategic approach that addresses self-regulation, appropriate responses to conflict, motivation, and academic excellence while preparing students to transition back into the comprehensive school setting. Relationship building is an integral part of our school family, parents and students. We need you to partner with our faculty and staff to ensure students are growing socially and academically. When families enroll at Howard Learning Academy, students will be a part of a nurturing, structured environment where collaboration with all stakeholders is of the utmost importance. We are committed to maintaining open lines of communication and welcome constructive feedback, ideas and suggestions. Here’s to an amazing school year, where positivity and success will be achieved.
Yours in educational service,
Ayanna Q. Richard
Principal
