Overview – Mission

The Harlem Heights Community Charter School, located at the Heights Center, 15570 Hagie Drive serves children in Kindergarten through Grade 5. Our school is designed to provide all students with a developmentally appropriate, standards-based, differentiated educational experience. The school’s vision is to create a small school community with focused and individualized direct instruction in which all students are valued, accepted for who they are, supported in the development of core academic skills and encouraged to challenge their learning toward excellence.

The school embraces the challenge of educating a diverse group of students. The academic and enrichment programs are research-based and carefully designed to meet the needs of students. The school assists students through a unique multi-faceted approach to education that will prepare them to be successful in subsequent educational placements.

The School’s organization and educational program is based on the following beliefs:

  • All students can learn;

  • All students deserve a chance to become all they can be;

  • All students learn at different rates and students should have a variety of instructional options that meet their individual needs and learning pace
