MORE CHOICES

They have the opportunity for increased fine arts study, technology engineering, family and consumer education, and can choose from five world languages including Dutch, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.

Integrated Technology

Technology is infused into the Kaleidoscope Academy approach to learning. Instructors will have greater access to a variety of technologies not limited to computers, projection equipment for streaming video, and amplification systems which have been proven to increase student comprehension and learning.

In-Depth Study

The Kaleidoscope Academy offers more time for in-depth study because instructional time will increase by 46 minutes per day. The extra academic period was created by reducing the passing time between periods and shortening the lunch hour for students.

Kaleidoscope Academy: A school with more choices and opportunities for middle school students.

Kaleidoscope Academy is a charter school for students in grades six through eight, located within the campus of Roosevelt Middle School.

The Mission of the Kaleidoscope Academy is to engage middle school students in their learning through a collaborative process that follows Best Practices as outlined by the National Middle School Association's This We Believe, the National Association of Secondary School Principals Breaking Ranks in the Middle, and identified skills from the Framework for 21st Century Skills. The two underlying curricular themes in Kaleidoscope Academy are technology and the fine arts. These themes are the foundation for the charter school and are woven into all core content classes, offering students a broader exposure to technology or the fine arts. These themes allow us to better meet the individual needs and interests of our unique population, while better preparing them for a technology rich 21st Century career.
