The Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts

• Public School
• BETHLEHEM, PA
• 9-12
• Rating 4.16 out of 5  190 reviews

Senior: I loved my experience attending Charter Arts! I enjoyed that I had the ability to contribute my artistic skills and gain my skill level at the same time. I met my best friends here and I am so happy I met them. As a theatre major I enjoyed the curriculum and my instructors, they were all extremely supportive and inspirational. They taught us great life lessons from respect to how to present yourself in public and around others. Being a student at this school is definitely one of the reasons why I am who I am today. I had many great experiences while attending school here. For example: Directing the Black History month show, understudying in Steel Magnolias, and being a theatre major and a dance minor. I feel that Charter Arts could work on growing a more diverse environment within the faculty and staff because the importance of this is present within the students of color and their families. Having diversity in the student body and the faculty is crucial in education.

Lehigh Valley Academy Regional Charter School

• Public School
• BETHLEHEM, PA
• K-12
• Rating 3.62 out of 5  137 reviews

Senior: Overall Lehigh Valley Academy is a great school if you are deciding to go to an international school or examine for IB credits. If you are looking for a regular high school diploma, this school is not for you. The curriculum is very intense and there are many requirements in order to obtain your IB credits. The school is small compared to local high schools but there is still school spirit and fun activities that student council creates. The biggest asset to the sports at LVA is their Step Team, they have had the opportunity to win first place at the State competition and go to nationals! There is dress code at the school. There is a lot of pressure on the juniors and seniors due to the Diploma Programme, they also offer a Career Programme for students who are more interested in engineering or biomedical. The CP program is definitely easier than the DP program but they both offer great opportunities.

Executive Education Academy Charter School

• Public School
• ALLENTOWN, PA
• K-12
• Rating 4.58 out of 5  12 reviews

Parent: My daughter has been in EEACS since she was in kindergarten and she is now in the 4th grade. She excels in every way at EEACS. The culture, the education experience are all superior to any public school I’ve experienced. We enrolled my high school bonus daughter who was in honors at another local public school. EEACS was so far ahead that we had to get her a tutor to help her catch up.

The culture is most impressive, the teachers and leaders are fully invested in the education abs success of each child.

It is a beautiful and safe facility, all staff is kind and gracious. They treat everyone with respect.

Communication is top notch! I have cell phone numbers for both our kids team leaders. I feel comfortable reaching out any time I need to.

Circle of Seasons Charter School

• K-8
• Rating 5 out of 5  2 reviews

Parent: COS is now a K-8th grade school. They focus on the whole child and have a class that moves up each year with the same core teacher. Amazing school that doesn’t spend every day teaching for a test. The students are taught to think and use hands on methods in problem solving. We love that they spend a lot of their day outside in all weather playing, learning, gardening, walking, exploring and taking care of animals.

I would recommend this school to anyone!

Arts Academy Charter School

• Public School
• ALLENTOWN, PA
• 5-8
• Rating 3.5 out of 5  6 reviews

Parent: My children have truly found a home at AACMS. It is a place where students are free to be, and discover, themselves. The quality of the instruction and performances are superior. The teachers understand the (often right-brain dominant) artistic mind, because they are artists too! The students allow and encourage their classmates to express themselves honestly. Students encourage and support one another in their artistic endeavors. The school is held back only by the limitations of its space and a small number of students who don't truly love their chosen art (e.g. a child who does not actually love to draw will not be a positive presence in a two and half hour art class). When they go on to high school, I'm sure my children will hold fond memories of AACMS and return as alumni for performances and just to visit with their teachers.

Lincoln Leadership Academy Charter School

• K-12
• Rating 3.65 out of 5  48 reviews

Freshman: Lincoln Leadership Academy Charder School is a school of excellence. High School student's can study music, media, photography and more. Student's are challenged to exceed their own limitations with great help from teachers and peers.

This school is quite small, so you have more of a personal lesson in every class. I enjoyed my years at this school, I was one of the first students at the grand opening.

Roberto Clemente Charter School

• Public School
• ALLENTOWN, PA
• K-12
• Rating 3.81 out of 5  58 reviews

Freshman: I go here and it is an okay high school. We are PIAA certified and are great with college preparation. The staff and faculty are strict, but it is for our better. I am a currently a freshman here and looking forward to playing for this school and going to either Penn State University or Pittsburgh University. I would recommend this school for your child, for any parents reading. Unlike any other Pennsylvania high school, the teachers care, it is a good environment, and you would have a great time at this charter school with friends.
