WE LOVE OUR SCHOOLHOUSE!
Empowered Minds is proud to call 311 Oakwood Ave, Durham, NC 27701 home —an ideal setting for our innovative 21st-century one-room schoolhouse model.
Our learners enjoy ample outdoor space, including a backyard, a neighboring public park, and another nearby park featuring an open field and basketball courts — all within walking distance. Plus, Durham Central Park is just a one-mile stroll away.
We’re also just a 6-minute walk from the newly transformed Durham Downtown Main Library, as well as vibrant public spaces and amenities in the heart of downtown Durham.
Not from Durham, North Carolina? Empowered Minds Academy too far away for your family?
