Enrollment targeted at students of color in the communities of Lynn, Chelsea, Revere, Everett, and East Boston
Jean Charles Academy (JCA), an accessible, private school based in Lynn, is now enrolling for the 2022-2023 school year, with space available in Kindergarten and grades 3-8.
Founded by Nakia Navarro, JCA was designed to meet the needs of students of color by building a racially equitable curriculum and school culture within an inclusive dual language educational program. The recruitment is focused in the underserved communities of Lynn, Chelsea, Revere, Everett, and East Boston.
The mission of Jean Charles Academy is to promote biliteracy, bilingualism, and biculturalism for students. The school will prioritize students of color by providing an interdisciplinary and dual language education that will prepare students for the 21st century through an emphasis on holistic learning and critical thinking skills. Tuition for JCA is based on a shared economy structure that provides reduced rates depending on ability to pay. Accepted families will not be turned away if they are unable to cover the cost of the program.
JCA offers exciting hands-on learning opportunities to its students including a hydroponic garden and robotics programming as part of its STEM curriculum, field trips to locations such as Brooksby Farm, and after school activities such as gymnastics.
