The student performance data in this new report adds an important dimension to the growing body of research highlighting the superior performance benefits of growing well-designed portfolio systems that include a mix of both traditional and charter public schools.
The report's findings add credence to the long-stated supposition that public charter schools create a competitive dynamic that compels traditional district schools to upgrade their teaching and learning to maintain enrollment, so that conditions improve for all children. Another common explanation, as charter schools uncover better ways of motivating learning, other schools in that same geography then adopt those innovative practices. Or, an increase in school options make it more common for parents to find a school that is the optimum fit for unlocking their child’s potential.

The Wildcat community turned out in large numbers for one of the school's biggest events of the year.
One of The Academy's most attended events each year is the PTO's Trunk or Treat celebration. This year proved to be one of the biggest nights yet with dozens of trunks decorated by staff, students, and families. We estimate more than a thousand people attended.
