A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held last week to mark the opening of Triumph Academy, a partnership of Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools, Orange County Schools, the Orange-Person-Chatham (OPC) Area Program for mental health and Triumph LLC.
The academy, which is located in Hillsborough, will serve the educational and therapeutic needs of middle school students in the two districts. Each district has contributed one teacher toward the operation of the program. Students will attend the program on a temporary basis and receive support in the transition back to their home school.
