Closing the Achievement Gap

Academic Achievement

High-Performing Schools

Backed by a Stanford study, LEARN is recognized as 'gap-busting,' effectively eliminating learning losses for our scholars.

LEARN alumni go on to graduate college at 2x the rate of their peers exceeding city, state and national averages.

100% of LEARN campuses outperform the neighborhood and zoned public schools.

Find your School

LEARN is a network of high-performing, tuition-free public charter schools. We have 11 schools that serve over 4,000 scholars in Chicago, North Chicago, Waukegan and Washington D.C.

LEARN Charter Schools are 100% free and public. There are no testing requirements to enroll.

Our Core Values

Culture of Respect

Our staff, families, students and community are expected to treat one another with respect. We believe it is a right, privilege and responsibility of each individual to contribute to and work in an environment of trust and cooperation.

High Expectations

LEARN scholars consistently outperform their peers on standardized tests because we hold them to high expectations. Our data shows that students continue to achieve tremendous academic growth across all subject areas each year they are enrolled at a LEARN school.

Safe & Nurturing Environment

Our classrooms are engaging, collaborative spaces where students learn to be responsible for themselves and each other. Each classroom is a safe, nurturing environment where students develop the confidence to accept challenges and learn from mistakes, to work with others to solve a problem, to discover the power of their curiosity and the discipline to achieve results.

Focus on the Whole Child

At every grade level, we support children in developing the social and emotional skills that will make them successful in school and in life.

Family Involvement

At LEARN, we honor family involvement and leadership in our schools and respect it as vital to achieving our mission. Together with families as partners, we can create a powerful school community that can ensure the success of every child.

Enrollment Process

As a public charter school network, LEARN utilizes a lottery system to fill open seats at each of our schools. No preferences are given based on race, gender or religious affiliation.
