Welcome to the Cabot Learning Academy (CLA). My name is Kimberly Griffin, and I am honored to be your principal for the 2024-2025 school year.

CLA is a unique K-12 school setting within the Cabot School District, where students come to progress on academic and behavioral skills at their individual levels. CLA is a learning community committed to quality learning where students are taught in small classes with no more than 12-18 students, a teacher, and two paraprofessionals. A variety of instructional strategies are used throughout the school day to help students reach their full potential with both academics and behavioral needs. Social skills are taught throughout the day to meet students where they are with their social and emotional skills. CLA strives to meet students where they are with their learning and help them reach their goals so that they can become successful lifelong learners. As part of the Cabot School District, CLA partners with every school campus in the district to make sure that every student has the opportunity to learn in the environment that allows them to be successful.

We have moved into our new building at 407 South Polk Street, and we are so grateful for the extra room so that our students have the opportunity to utilize our sensory rooms and motor lab. There are rooms for students to meet with their outside agency counselors and space to learn, play, and grow.
As principal, I am honored and excited to be able to partner with our community and parents to provide an amazing educational experience for all of our students. I believe that collaborative partnerships are the key to student success. I can’t wait to love on your child and get to know them as unique individuals and watch them learn and grow.

On behalf of the CLA staff and Jasper, our educational assistance dog, we are looking forward to providing the best possible learning opportunities for our students this school year. Please know that we are always available to answer questions, take suggestions, and address concerns with all of our families. You can reach us at 501-743-3540. Communication is key for all of us to be able to work together to help your child succeed.
