Every child deserves an exceptional education
Regardless of where you live or what your circumstances might be, your child deserves an educational environment that will enable them to flourish.
By removing social, emotional, and academic barriers that stand in your child’s way, Success Academy and Career Academy South Bend have created environments that empower students to reach their full potential.




Finding your calling is hard work. We love hard work
Our students learn the value of a strong work ethic—and what it takes to make a living doing what they love. Project-based and collaborative learning prepares them for the modern workforce and affords them meaningful hands-on experience.


There’s no such thing as a typical teacher here
Our staff chose to work in a charter school for a reason: they believe it provides the best environment for student success. Empathic innovators, our faculty and administration have spent decades creating truly transformative classroom experiences you’d be hard-pressed to find in traditional public or private schools.


The power of discovering your path.
Starting in Kindergarten, vocational exploration is constant at Career Academy and Success Academy. By focusing on one of three Pathways—Career, Trade, or Higher Education—your student will explore many channels of experiential education to pinpoint their true calling

Intentionally Different
We believe there's a better way to educate students.

Traditional Public Schools
The education your child receives in a traditional public school depends entirely upon your family’s address. As public charter schools, Career Academy and Success Academy are open to all Indiana residents, regardless of ZIP code.
Why? Because we believe your address shouldn’t dictate the quality of your education.


Private Schools
Private schools are expensive. Career Academy and Success Academy are free. That means no application fees or tuition, and free or reduced-price lunches and technology fees for qualifying students.
Why? Because we believe your bank account shouldn’t dictate the quality of your education.


Other Schools
Other schools value meeting standardized testing requirements over real-world experience. We use Project-Based Learning from kindergarten through graduation, ensuring that by 8th grade your child has a wealth of real-world experience.
Why? Because we believe preparing for the future is more important than preparing for a test.
