Eastern University Academy Charter School is an Early College/Project Based School located in East Falls. Our school encourages and requires students to develop tangible projects that others may read, observe, or interact with. In the past students have written and published books, created sports blogs, health fairs, blood drives, and more. It has come to our attention that while some students are focus on task with their projects; others could use more assistant with creating quality projects. Therefore we are seeking volunteers or groups to partner with us to inspire our students to "Think Big!" "Live on Purpose!" and "Excel at Life!" We are looking for college students and professionals that are available to volunteeer (1) hour a week between 10am - 4pm to mentor/assist students (grades 7-12) with "Passion Projects." Volunteers may start (2/2/2015). Contact Jonas L. Harris at jharris@euacademycs.org if you want to volunteer with us.

Mission Statement
The mission of Eastern University Academy Charter School is to provide a wholistic, college-integrated learning community dedicated to the education of each student in the context of his/her unique interests. The school will provide students with an environment of excitement and early expectation through an integrative discovery-based learning experience that will develop logical reasoning, critical thinking, and purpose driven global citizens. The school will graduate self-directed, self-aware learners many of whom will have successfully mastered college level work.
Description
Eastern University Academy Charter School is a model of true integration of an early college program where students prepare for and earn college credit prior to graduation, and a Big Picture School, where students spend a large amount of time pursuing their individual interests through individual work projects, small group projects, service learning projects, and structured internships. The key to making this model work is in the integration of key elements of project based learning, true performance-based progression and high school-college curriculum alignment based on PA and national college preparation standards, a small school with small seminar style classes, and preparation for the high school in an academically rigorous middle school program. The school currently serves 357 students in grades 7-12.
