A Personalized Education Plan for Every Student

Braden River High School:
A Wall-to-Wall Model Academy High School

Braden River opened its doors in 2005 with 650 freshmen and sophomores in attendance.
The school had grand plans to do something that had never been done in Manatee County; to create an entire school focused on both the rigor of college preparation and the real-world application of career skills. Throughout the implementation of career academies, this goal has been realized. Braden River High School is home to four nationally certified academies:

• Academy of Arts & Communications Technology
• Academy of Business & International Studies
• Academy of Engineering Technology and Leadership
• Academy of Science Technology & Health

Academies continue to ensure that students are a part of a “small learning community” that assists each student in reaching
his/her identified educational and career goals. Academies are a type of “school-within-a-school” that provide a smaller
environment where students feel connected to a specific group of teachers and students that have similar interests and plans.

Academy Highlights:

• Academy students will have some of the same teachers and classmates for at least two years.

• Academic and technical teachers meet to plan curriculum, content, and instruction.

• Academies allow for work-based learning and job shadowing opportunities.

• College/career counseling informs students about options for employment and further education.

• Each academy has an Advisory Group consisting of employers, community members, and faculty.

• Students in the 9th grade will participate in a career exploration unit, through the Personal, Career 
and School Development Skills course. Students will have the ability to assess their interests, 
values, aptitudes, and future educational plans in this course.

• Academies offer flexible plans of study that are centered on different career fields.

• Students have the flexibility to change their career direction 
as new knowledge and skills are acquired.


The mission of Braden River High School is to empower students
 to be strong, responsible leaders who value personal integrity,
academic excellence, and civic involvement.
