Chester Charter Scholars Acade

Chester Charter Scholars Academy sits in Chester, one of Pennsylvania's most historically significant — and persistently underserved — cities along the Delaware River, and for families who choose it, the school represents a real commitment to finding academic opportunity in a tough environment. The school shows particular strength in math relative to its peers, though like many urban charters in the area, it's still working to close gaps in English and science. Families drawn here tend to be those actively seeking an alternative to the traditional district path and willing to invest in a school community that's building something from the ground up.
