Amistad Academy looks to expand

Assuming CT legislators come to their senses, some exciting things will be happening in New Haven as Amistad grows...

Amistad Academy, the gutsy charter school that transforms underachievers into overachievers, plans to expand this fall so its students can attend Amistad from kindergarten through high school graduation.

 

If Amistad can capture the needed state funding, the new grades will feature some startling ideas, such as not letting high school students graduate until they are accepted into college.
