Thales Academy families had a great time at the recent Family Night Out at Milton’s Pizza in Wakefield. The event was held on Tuesday, August 31st and drew a fantastic crowd.

In a well deserved break from study, students were able to enjoy great food and spend time with Thales friends. Students also made use of the time as an opportunity for showcasing and trading their Silly Banz.

Suzanne Lambert, Headmistress of Thales Wake Forest, extended her gratitude for all of the families, friends, and faculty of the school who came out to show their support! Go Huskies!

Expansion into Raleigh

fxdesigns — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 18:27:56 +0000

Thales Academy recently acquired a third Wake County site in its continued growth. It all began three years ago with one site, 30 students, and high expectations. Founder Robert Luddy, local businessman and entrepreneur, saw the need for affordable high quality education that would help America keep its moral and economic leadership in the competitive world. Thales Academy, a non-profit system of private schools, was the answer. Three years later, with 500 students, campuses in Wake Forest, Apex and Raleigh (under development) the results are speaking for themselves as the concept continues to gain interest. Parents are enthusiastically embracing the Thales model for educational success which utilizes efficient teaching and operating methods to produce superior academic results while lowering the cost of the education for parents. The new 10 acre Raleigh location, at the corner of Fox Road and I-540, will serve Raleigh and surrounding areas. It will be home to a K-6, opening in 2011, and a middle school and high school, planned to open in 2012. Upon completion, the Fox Road Thales location will boast approximately 40 beautiful classrooms, a regulation size gym, and the same world class education found at Thales Apex and Wake Forest. The K-6 building will be designed after the Thales Apex and Wake Forest facilities, with the middle and high school facilities, which include the gym, modeled after the successful Franklin Academy.

Thales Academy’s methods of instruction have been extensively studied and are proven effective. The effective implementation of this model has drawn the attention of educators in the local area and from as far away as Canada. Thales aims to continue expansion in order to provide a highly successful, values based, educational option to families.
