A Mission for Families of Greater Fall River
The mission of the Atlantis Charter School is to provide an education second to none, yielding academic excellence and life-long learning skills.
WHY CHOOSE ATLANTIS CHARTER SCHOOL?
Atlantis Charter School, an independent public school, provides an educational choice to the families of Greater Fall River by offering our students a solid academic foundation on which to build a successful future. We expect an equal partnership among parents, community, faculty, staff and students to create a safe, caring, innovative and progressive learning environment. Atlantis incorporates the best research-based practices in education to meet the needs of our student population. It is our intent to become a model of educational excellence.
SCHOOL-TO-CAREER ACADEMIES
We worked with industry leaders to develop five academies, each having its own Student Centered Small Learning Community, to teach students real-world skills and properly prepare them for the next steps in life. Academic advisors support our program, providing guidance on instruction.
CHARTER SCHOOLS: AN ALTERNATE TO TRADITIONAL SCHOOLS
Charter schools are public schools of choice that report directly to the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education and are exempt from many local and state regulations that apply to traditional public schools. These exemptions allow parents, teachers, community leaders, educational entrepreneurs, and others greater flexibility to innovate, create, and provide students with increased educational options. Charter schools must be sponsored by designated local, state, or other organizations charged with monitoring their quality and integrity while holding them accountable for academic results and fiscal practices.
