Peter’s Academy was founded by Rebecca Lemieux, a single mother of twins—one of whom is non-verbal and on the autism spectrum. After years of navigating therapies and school systems, she saw a need for something different: a place where students could be safe, loved, and challenged to grow—not just academically, but emotionally, spiritually, and practically.
Peter’s Academy began as a labor of love and obedience to God’s calling. Today, it has grown into a working farm school where students can learn, work, pray, and thrive in a supportive environment.
At Peter’s Academy, we tailor education to the needs of each student while preparing them for real life.
We offer full-day instruction with a focus on academics, life skills, vocational training, and spiritual formation.
We teach core subjects including math, language arts, science, and social studies using learning plans designed to meet each student at their level.
Students learn essential daily living skills such as personal hygiene, cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, and using money responsibly.
Our students care for animals, plant and harvest vegetables, maintain the grounds, and participate in small business projects.
Bible study, prayer, and discipleship are part of daily life. Students grow in biblical values and spiritual understanding.
We coordinate with families and therapists to integrate support into daily routines.
