North Star Academy Charter School of Newark

Mission Statement

TO serve inner-city Newark children by building an uncommon school where students partake of a rigorous 11-month, extended day academic program that gives them the means to beat the odds in school and life. To shape an intimate, supportive, engaging school community - where classes are small and personalized; where parents are partners; where teachers teach with passion and commitment; and where all the adults model - and the student develop and live - the values of caring, respect, honesty, justice, and self-discipline.
