Pepin Academies Moves To New Pasco County Campus
The state-of-the-art campus will serve students of all levels through its career exploration and preparation program.
NEW PORT RICHEY, FL — Pepin Academies Pasco announced the opening of its new 14-acre school campus located in New Port Richey, 7710 Osteen Road, New Port Richey, officially establishing a permanent location after operating out of a temporary site for the last seven years.
The innovative facility includes elementary, middle, and high school classrooms designed for its unique student population. The campus also consists of an on-site therapy building for speech pathologists and occupational therapists, a science lab, a gymnasium complete with a basketball court, stage, and cafeteria, sports fields, and an administrative building for faculty and staff.
“Despite the many challenges we have faced over the last year, we are thrilled about the opening of our new campus located in Pasco County,” said Celeste Kellar, principal of Pepin Academies Pasco. “Each building is equipped with the technology necessary to serve the needs of our students and ensure they reach their full academic and career potential. With twenty-two classrooms in both our middle and high school buildings, as well as an additional music room, art room, and Falcon Film Studios, we will be able to serve even more students across our community.”

The campus sits alongside five-acres of Florida flatwoods trails, which will be used for educational purposes and exploration. As part of the Pepin Academies Transition Program, young adults will have access to classroom and community-based instruction for career exploration, employability, independent living, and self-advocacy.
“These new facilities will engage not only the academic minds of our students but also their creativity,” added Kellar. “We believe in meeting the needs of the whole child, and this new space further lends itself to allowing our student population to thrive. We are excited to see what the future holds for this campus as we continue to grow our Pepin Academies family.”
