In the fall of 2005 the faculty and staff of Moravia High School welcomed the Class of 2009 with a new program designed to facilitate a successful transition from middle to high school, the Ninth Grade Academy. Moravia High School’s Ninth Grade Academy seeks to provide the most ideal learning opportunities for incoming ninth grade students.

The Ninth Grade Academy is designed to provide students and teachers with the support they need to achieve maximum academic, social and emotional success. The academy’s features include an academic period in each student’s schedule designed to encourage goal setting and accountability as well as organizational and study skills and a common planning period for core content teachers (mathematics, English, science and social studies) to plan collaborative lessons.

The Ninth Grade Academy is housed in one area of the building which allows teachers a great deal of flexibility to plan and implement lessons that require extended time and a team approach. The successful implementation of this program has allowed our ninth graders to adjust to high school in a more positive and productive fashion. The staff members assigned to the Moravia High School Ninth Grade Academy are:

Mrs. Dann – School Counselor

Mrs. Dienhoffer - Global History and Geography

Mrs. Epstein - Living Environment

Ms. Hares - Mathematics

Mr. Leise - English

Mr. Mazza - Living Environment
