Meet our Founder

Melva Hendricks

Ladies & Gents Private Academy was created from my real-life experience as a mother. I’ve seen firsthand the gaps in education—not just academically, but in how children are supported, understood, and encouraged. I watched my own children struggle, become overwhelmed, and at times shut down because they were given work they didn’t fully understand or weren’t able to truly master.


And as a parent, that’s hard to watch.


I knew there had to be a better way. Not just for my children, but for so many others who are experiencing the same challenges every day. 


I bring both personal experience and professional knowledge into this vision. I hold two Associate degrees in Finance and Arts, along with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Analysis & Management. My background allows me to understand the importance of structure, data, and measurable growth—but more importantly, how to apply those principles in a way that builds confidence in our scholars.


Because success isn’t just about completing work—it’s about understanding it, mastering it, and feeling confident while doing it.

My Mission

This school is my purpose.


It’s about creating a space where children feel seen, supported, and capable. A place where they can express their ideas, grow with others, and develop into confident, well-rounded individuals.


I didn’t just want a better option for my children—I wanted to create one for our entire community.

Who we serve

Ladies & Gents Private Academy was intentionally created to support all learners, especially those who may need a different approach.

We proudly support students with:

  • IEPs and 504 Plans
  • ADD/ADHD
  • Autism
  • And any child who simply learns differently or needs more support

Every child deserves patience, structure, and an environment where they can thrive at their own pace.
