Charter School for Applied Technologies
Connie: This school works towards educating the whole student, not just academics. They have gym every day, Spanish and health instruction begin in Kindergarten as do art, music and library. The teachers there recognized the special needs of my sons even before we had formal diagnoses and began working with them to their abilities above their grade levels. This K-12 charter school has a 100% graduation rate for three years, has a new expanded fitness center, family services center, green house and plans for an auditorium. We will do everything we can to keep our sons in this school!!

CSAT is a fantastic school. My child started ther in 5th grade and when he graduated his class was the first to have 100% graduation rate.
The teachers are fantastic and are open and willing to work with parents and afterschool personnel.
