The educational needs of each student will be met by monitoring their progress on their Student Success Plan by holding periodic meetings with students and families. Additionally, the school counseling staff will work cooperatively with the teacher to develop a program which will support the students emotional and social needs.

Students are instructed in language arts, math, science, and social studies, using the same district adopted curriculum as the comprehensive schools of Sacramento City Unified School District.

Success Academy works in partner with Ms. Lynn from Sacramento State to provide academic tutors who work in the classroom to support students.   

Physical Education

Physical education is provided for all students. Students are taught the importance of healthy lifestyle choices, and are required to participate in physical fitness activities. Students will not be required to dress out for P.E.; however, please ensure that proper shoes are worn for P.E. activities. All students will take P.E., and must participate in order to receive credit.
