A Private School Designed for Depth, Belonging, and Academic Growth.
Serving K–12 students in Farmington Hills.
A boutique private school, thoughtfully designed to grow with students.
AMPed Academy offers a cohesive academic program where students engage deeply with ideas, build essential skills, and take ownership of their learning.
Small classes. Teachers who know your kid. Work that actually means something. That’s what every day at AMPed is built around.
How Learning Is Designed at AMPed
Belonging by Design
Students learn in small, thoughtfully structured cohorts where relationships, trust, and psychological safety support meaningful academic growth.
Purposeful Academic Work
Learning is organized around inquiry, projects, and mastery so students understand what they are learning, why it matters, and how to improve.
Faculty-Guided Growth
Teachers actively guide learning across the full experience, providing structure, feedback, and accountability as students grow in independence.
Designed for Development
Learning experiences evolve as students grow, with increasing complexity, responsibility, and depth across elementary and middle school.
Applications Open for 2026/27 School Year
Limited space available across cohorts.
AMPed Academy is a candidate for Middle States Association accreditation — a rigorous, evidence-based process that holds us accountable to the same standards as established private schools. We’re proud to be the first microschool in Michigan to pursue this pathway.
Learning Pathways by Stage of Development
Learning experiences designed for depth and growth across each stage of development.
Lower Elementary
Foundational skills, curiosity, and confidence built through guided exploration and hands-on learning.
Upper Elementary
Deeper inquiry, collaboration, and growing independence, supported by close faculty guidance.
Junior High
Greater responsibility, interdisciplinary projects, and academic ownership, as students prepare for advanced work with faculty support.
Gifted and Talented
Gifted learners are challenged with greater depth and complexity within mixed-age cohorts, so advanced thinking happens alongside — not apart from — a real learning community.
A Parent's Perspective
Is AMPed the Right School for Your Family?
AMPed Academy is intentionally designed for families who value:
- Academic depth over coverage
- Relationships over scale
- Thoughtful design over convention
If those three things matter to you, there’s a good chance AMPed is worth a closer look. Schedule a tour and see it for yourself.
A Private School Built Around the Whole Experience
AMPed Academy is a complete private school program, designed from the ground up around how students actually grow. Learning isn’t organized by hours in a seat. It’s organized around depth — what students understand, how they apply it, and where they go next.
That means rigorous, standards-aligned work across every discipline. Faculty who are genuinely invested in each student’s progress, not just what happens on campus. Clear expectations, continuous feedback, and a steady push toward mastery.
The result is a school that holds together as a single, coherent academic experience — not a collection of disconnected pieces.
What that looks like in practice:
- Meaningful, project-based work that builds real skills alongside academic knowledge
- Faculty guidance that doesn’t stop at the classroom door
- Portfolios that document genuine growth over time — not just completed assignments
- Learning that’s intellectually demanding and personally relevant, because those two things aren’t in conflict
High standards don’t require a high-pressure environment. They require a school that’s designed well enough to make the hard work feel worth it. That’s what we built.
