Welcome to The Achievement Academy Founded in 1992 Achievement is our Legacy The curriculum is designed to begin in October of each year and conclude in May. This is to allow for synchronization with the students' academic year. The sessions are the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month and are an hour and a half in duration. The sessions are held at Germantown Friends School located at Germantown Avenue and Coulter Street. Weekend trips are incorporated into the program with the objective of helping the students to associate these topics with real world experiences. The program is broken into two sections, Life skills, ages 9-12, Youth Leadership 13-18. The Academy also sponsors a series of workshops for the parents. The workshop presenters are professionals from the Philadelphia area. The alumni and undergraduate members of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity are also program participants.
