Grades K-5*
*We will be adding a new grade level each year through grade 8.

We are Greensboro’s most innovative charter school, offering a stimulating S.T.E.M. curriculum and a supportive environment to ensure our students experience success every day.

We emphasizes personalized learning to improve student achievement. Personalized learning is student-centered and allows the student to drive their learning. All students will receive teacher directed, on grade level or above instruction during the core instruction blocks in reading, math, and science.

The result: students who are independent and confident, inquisitive and enthusiastic, responsible and compassionate. We believe the elementary school years are the most formative of a child’s life. These early years can breed intellectual apathy or curiosity to seek knowledge.

Next Generation Academy will inspire students to become productive 21st century literate citizens. Every student will develop and demonstrate effective reading, writing, speaking and listening skills by participating in high quality, explicit literacy instruction across all content areas.
