Royal Palm
Charter Academy
From butterfly gardens to science fairs, this charter school provides
many hands-on learning opportunities for students in grades kindergarten
through 6 to connect with core knowledge. As the sister school to Oakwood
Academy Charter School, Royal Palm Charter Academy uses the Core Knowledge
Curriculum, which is taught in a sequence that lets students build on
what they know. Students develop cultural literacy in the context of
core subjects including: Literature, History, Geography, Social Studies,
Science, Art and Music.
A low student/teacher ratio allows teachers to better meet the needs
of each student. Within each class, students work in small reading groups
to build better vocabulary and reading comprehension skills. Gifted students
will find the intellectual stimulation they need in a school-based “pull
out” program that provides advanced level instruction. All students
have daily use of classroom computers equipped with Internet access to
complete coursework and conduct research. After school, students can
make new friends and enjoy different experiences in the scouting program
for boys and girls and the dance program. Parents can get involved with
the school through the Parent Teacher Organization and the volunteer
program.
