Over the past week, we’ve been fielding questions from our community about the potential teacher strike at Columbus City Schools.
We want to confirm to our families that our school will not be affected by the strike. As a public charter school, we operate independently from public school districts.
We will begin the school year in-person as planned on Wednesday 8/24. For information about the new school year (calendar, supply lists, dress code, etc), visit our Parent Resources page.
We are a proud member of ACCEL Schools—a public charter school network serving thousands of PK-12 students throughout the United States. ACCEL was founded in 2012 by the early pioneers of online learning. Our leadership believes that all children, regardless of location or socio-economic background, deserve a quality education that prepares them to succeed in school and become productive global citizens.
ACCEL Schools Instructional Model provides:
Our teachers integrate fine and performing arts instruction into all subject areas to enrich the experience of learning and make instruction more memorable and relevant to each child. Lessons in art appreciation help students develop an understanding in form, style, and structure. Art projects and performances help students explore their individual creativity and expression.
We offer free breakfast and lunch to students through the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), a federally-assisted meal program that provides nutritionally balanced, USDA-compliant meals to students each school day.
For meeting the highest standards of education in ongoing third-party review.
Sentinels are strong guards, always watchful. At Central Point Prep, students will receive a strong academic foundation and develop a love for life-long learning. Our students will be proud, helpful participants in the Central Point community—looking to the future, and looking out for one another.
