Academies & Partners

Simon Youth Academies are Alternative Education programs or stand-alone high schools that serve non-traditional students that are located in Simon Malls or school district facilities. The Academies give students at risk of dropping out the same education they would receive in a traditional classroom, but in a flexible environment that emphasizes one-on-one learning, personalized support and small class sizes led by compassionate teachers.

Academy graduates receive accredited high school diplomas from their local public school districts, as each Academy represents a partnership with one or more public school districts and is an extension of the local school system.

Academy graduates also become members of the SYF Alumni Network, a national network of more than 29,000 SYF graduates who have earned their diplomas. Through the SYF Alumni Network, SYF graduates can connect with their fellow alumni, explore professional and event opportunities, and share important milestones with SYF.
