Admissions
Rolling Admissions: Now Accepting Applications for the 2026–2027 School Year
Margaret Meyers, Acting Director of Enrollment Management
Welcome! We’ve Been Expecting You.
If you’re here, you likely have a bright, capable child who isn’t getting what they need in a traditional classroom. You’re not alone, and you’re in the right place. We’ve been expecting you.
Known as The LD School of Excellence in Hampton Roads and Northeast North Carolina, Chesapeake Bay Academy serves students in grades 1–12 with a wide range of learning differences. We know your child. We know they’re smart, curious, and full of potential. We also know that traditional teaching methods and classroom settings often can’t give them the support they need to shine. They need a better fit, and that’s what we’ve been preparing for.
At CBA, we support the whole child: social, emotional, and academic. When a child finally finds the right fit, the change reaches beyond the classroom and often transforms the whole family. Walking alongside families through the admissions process is one of the great honors of our work, and seeing those transformations happen is a true privilege.
Since 1989, CBA has been uncovering the unique talents of every student who walks through our doors. Rigorous academics, athletics, and fine arts, all taught in an engaging and nurturing environment, give our students both the ability and the motivation to succeed. Our teachers follow a simple philosophy: respect each student’s unique needs and empower every child to grow into their full potential.
Your child’s place here is waiting. We invite you to visit and see for yourself why Chesapeake Bay Academy is a school where bright kids with learning differences thrive.
We’ve been expecting you. Come see us.
