“Wait… Foundations is a charter school. What does that actually mean?”

It’s one of the questions we hear from families all the time!

Foundations Academy is a tuition-free public charter school serving students in grades K–8 in Brighton. Charter schools are public schools that families can choose for their children. They are held accountable to public-school standards while having additional flexibility in how they operate and serve their students.

At Foundations, that means combining strong academics with our Moral Focus program to help students grow both academically and in character.

No private-school tuition. No need to live in a specific neighborhood attendance boundary to simply express interest and apply. Just another public-school option families can consider when deciding what environment is right for their child. Enrollment is subject to availability, and a lottery is used when applications during Open Enrollment exceed available seats.

Curious if Foundations might be the right fit for your family? Schedule a tour and come see what makes our school different.
