Lowell Community Charter Public

The purpose of the Lowell Community Charter Public School is to prepare a diverse cross section of Lowell children for success as students, citizens, and workers by providing them with a comprehensive curriculum in a supportive, challenging, multicultural learning environment. The school’s highest priority is the promotion of academic achievement for all students in each of the areas addressed by the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks, including: English, Reading and Language Arts, Writing, Mathematics, Science, Health and Fitness, World Languages, Art, and Music, as well as Character and Ethics. The Lowell Community Charter Public School will place special emphasis on the contributions that immigrants have made to American life, and to Lowell’s development over the years, and on the culture, language, and history of the Southeast Asian and Latino peoples who comprise a substantial portion of Lowell’s present-day population. The school will actively promote the joy of discovery and creativity in the learning process, and will integrate the use of technology into aspects of instruction. The opportunity for learning will be enhanced through a longer school day and an extended year. Student achievement will be demonstrated in measurable terms to parents, students, and the community at large.
