Apex Academy is a tuition-free public charter school in E. Cleveland serving students in grades K-8. We shape instruction to build on the strengths and abilities of each student and integrate Moral Focus™ lessons into every school day. As a result, our students are well-prepared from kindergarten through eighth grade. A Stanford University study found National Heritage Academies partner-school students gained the equivalent of 3.5 months of additional learning each year compared to peers.

Apex families are invited to join us for our Preview Open House and tour on Wednesday, July 15th, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. As we enter this critical preparation season, this event serves as a vital bridge between summer break and the first day of school. We welcome students and families from all grade levels to visit the campus, reacquaint themselves with the school environment, and ensure every detail is in place for a successful academic launch. This session is designed to be a one-stop shop for finalizing the enrollment process. Our administrative staff will be stationed on-site to collect any remaining high-priority paperwork, including outstanding medical forms, residency verifications, and updated contact information. Completing these requirements now is essential to avoid any first-day delays and to ensure your student is officially cleared for all classroom activities. Beyond the paperwork, this is an excellent opportunity for the Apex community to gather during the most important phase of our pre-season planning. Whether you are a long-standing member of our community or joining us for the first time this year, we encourage you to use this time to get organized and feel confident about the year ahead. We look forward to seeing all of our families on July 15th as we finalize our rosters and prepare for excellence.

Apex Parent
I've been an Apex Academy parent for over a decade. To see what attracted me to the school back when my oldest child started to how much the school atmosphere and staff has evolved, is amazing. I'm glad to be a part of it.
