What is a Charter School?
Charter Schools offer a unique educational opportunity for your students and families. We are proud to be able to make choices based on the people who work, grow, and learn in our school everyday.
DID YOU KNOW... DALA has been a charter school since the fall of 2001!
DALA offers several differences from a traditional public school experience. These include...
Having our own Governing Board
Enhanced food service options
Our own transportation fleet
Why is this important?
We have our own Board of Directors that makes decisions ONLY for Discovery Academy. We have the autonomy that is needed to FOCUS on the success of our students. TOGETHER, we make decisions regarding our budget, programs offered and staff professional development.
In addition, we expanded and opened Discovery High School across the street in 2016 and we plan on opening Discovery Elementary School in the 2025-2026 school year. Your child if you choose, could be with us from Pre-K through 12th grade.
