Overview

Through the student leadership program of ownership, accountability, and incentives the development of pro-social behaviors allows for an increase in academic learning and engagement. Anthony Wayne Academy of Philadelphia, a Cognia accredited school, provides students with the skills and intangibles to succeed as young scholars and productive citizens.

Anthony Wayne Academy of Philadelphia is built on the foundation of our Pro-Social Peer Culture. The pillars of this culture include Guided Group Interaction (GGI) on a daily basis—regular meetings of students with their advisors to discuss issues that surface each day either in the home or in the school community—and an established system of student government, by which our student body actively participates in and contributes to our school’s environment, daily operations, and guiding principles.
