A Message from the Principal

Mission and Vision ALL student at King Academy of Social Justice will have access to high-quality, standards-aligned, grade-level content, and multiple opportunities to be successful. Through intentional accelerated learning/internalization plans and intentional supports, differentiated professional development opportunities, and collaborative partnerships with all stakeholders, we will be able to meet the individual needs of the WHOLE CHILD, in a JOY-infused environment meant to address unfinished learning and prepare them for college, career, and life readiness. Social Justice is in our name and at the heart of our culture which empowers all voices and learning styles. Students are set up for success through the implementation of Skyline, driven by Common Core State Standards, data-informed instruction, and collaboration with teachers, students and parents. More than anything else, Eagles will always R.I.S.E.!
