Program accomplishments
- ARCADIA CHARTER SCHOOL PROVIDES A CHOICE IN PUBLIC EDUCATION TO 6TH-12TH GRADE STUDENTS IN NORTHFIELD AND OUR SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES. OUR PROJECT BASED SCHOOL IS FREE AND OPEN TO ALL. INNOVATIVE AND EXCITING THINGS ARE TAKING PLACE HERE AT ARCADIA. STUDENTS HAVE INDIVIDUAL LEARNING PLANS AND ARE CREATING INTEREST-DRIVEN PROJECTS IN ADDITION TO ATTENDING TRADITIONAL CLASSES. NOT ONLY ARE OUR STUDENTS REQUIRED TO MEET ALL MINNESOTA STATE STANDARDS, BUT THEY ARE ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR ADDITIONAL CREDITS THROUGH QUARTERLY PROJECT WORK, A SEMESTER LONG JUNIOR PROJECT AND YEAR-LONG SENIOR PROJECT. WE HAVE A POSITIVE AND COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIP WITH NORTHFIELD PUBLIC SCHOOL. THE ARCADIA STAFF WORKS VERY HARD TO CREATE INDIVIDUAL LEARNING PLANS FOR ALL STUDENTS WHILE MAINTAINING PERSONAL CONNECTIONS WITH FAMILIES. ARCADIA'S SMALL SIZE ALLOWS US TO ASSIST PARENTS IN THE EDUCATION OF THEIR CHILD WHILE PROVIDING A PERSONAL TOUCH LONG GONE FROM LARGER TRADITIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THIS SENSE OF BELONGING BUILDS ACADEMIC CONFIDENCE WHILE CHALLENGING STUDENTS TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THEIR LEARNING. THE SCHOOL ENROLLED APPROXIMATELY 113 STUDENTS FOR THE 2024-25 ACADEMIC YEAR.Expenses $1,750,928 · revenue $16,738
