next generation academy
Your child's future starts here.
Greensboro’s most innovative charter school
Committed to Success
for ALL students.
We are a FREE public charter school serving students
and their families
Grades K-8
Our unique and exciting curriculum keeps kids ENGAGED! We offer a stimulating S.T.E.M. curriculum and a positive and supportive learning environment! Our students experience success every day- fostering a LOVE for school and learning.
We emphasize personalized learning to improve student achievement. Personalized learning is student-centered and allows students to drive their learning. All students will receive teacher directed, on grade level or above instruction during the core instruction blocks in reading, math and science.
​
The result: students who are independent and confident, inquisitive and enthusiastic, responsible and compassionate. We believe the elementary school years are the most formative of a child’s life. These early years can either foster intellectual apathy or curiosity to seek knowledge.
