Description
ABOUT OUR SCHOOL:
Agamim Classical Academy is a K-8 public charter school that offers a classical, liberal arts education for free. Our highly diverse student body of 260 scholars comes to our school from over 25 Metro area cities and from all over the world. We are a warm and joyful community where each child, staff member, and family is known and appreciated.
Our educational approach is balanced to enrich the heart with virtue and expand the mind with rigorous and inspiring classical content. Our aim as a public charter school is to grow our scholars into intelligent, caring, and engaged citizens.
Agamim’s staff are the heart and soul of the academy, and, like our families, they also have chosen Agamim’s mission and vision for themselves. Our staff have worked hard to create a welcoming and supportive place to develop our public school careers. They are a key part of creating our close-knit community. Class sizes average 25 or fewer per homeroom, and the student teacher ratio is 15:1 or lower.
Classical education is inspirational and life-changing for our students, staff, and families. It requires a dynamic, curious, engaging, organized, and happy teacher who loves to learn and works hard to see all students meet and exceed their potential.
