“Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.”
— Plato
Greek Philosopher
Plato Academy Schools began in Florida in 2004 with a vision to provide students with an education rooted in Greek culture, heritage, and language. Starting as a single school, it has grown into a network of nine K-8 charter schools across three counties, along with a high school in Tampa. Guided by the Socratic method, Plato Academy emphasizes critical thinking, character development, and experiential learning.
The schools blend tradition and innovation, offering advanced academics such as accelerated math programs and high school credit opportunities for middle school students. They also focus on developing the whole child through art, music, sports, and community engagement. With strong support from the Plato Education Foundation, the commitment to Greek culture is evident in language classes and cultural activities.
Plato Academy fosters a family-oriented atmosphere where parents are actively involved through volunteer hours, creating a secure and supportive learning environment. By combining rigorous academics with cultural enrichment and character education, Plato Academy Schools continue to shape well-rounded individuals ready to succeed in life while preserving the legacy of Greek educational ideals.
Plato Academy Schools, comprising nine K through 8th grade campuses across three counties and a high school in Tampa, offer an advanced and challenging curriculum designed to foster academic excellence and personal growth for all students.
Starting in 3rd grade, our accelerated math program challenges students to excel, preparing them for advanced coursework in middle and high school and building a strong foundation for future success in STEM fields. Our schools are staffed by caring and professional certified educators who uphold high academic and behavior standards, creating a nurturing environment for all students. In addition to core subjects, students benefit from a diverse array of programs, including gifted education, music, art, and Greek as a second language. Ensuring a safe and secure environment, Plato Academy Schools also promote physical activity and teamwork, with sports programs starting as early as 5th grade.
