Community Charter School
About
Community Charter School of Cambridge is a small, free, open-enrollment charter public school for grades 6 through 12 in East Cambridge. It offers a challenging, college-preparatory education built on supportive relationships and real-life experiences, with a goal of closing opportunity gaps for all students. The school prides itself on making sure every student is known, nurtured and challenged within a diverse, multicultural community of learners.
The middle school program focuses on skills students need for high school and beyond, including time management, organization, decision-making, study habits and critical thinking. Advisors and teachers get to know students well, and a range of supports, including counseling, office hours and evening programming, helps them pursue their goals. The school reports strong results on the MCAS, SAT and Advanced Placement exams, and graduates leave prepared for postsecondary success.
