Discover Our DifferenceSupporting Our Students
WE PROVIDE ALL OUR STUDENTS WITH REMOTE LEARNING DEVICES
While we may not know exactly what the next school year holds—whether we’re back in school, remote learning, or a combination of both—we will have a plan in place and the technology to support it. This will include providing our students with personal electronic devices (Chromebook or Tablet) for learning outside the classroom.

Back to School Plan
We are so excited to welcome you back to school this fall! Watch this video to hear more about how we’re preparing for the 2020-21 school year. We created detailed plans around four learning scenarios which we encourage you to learn more about here.
These plans are in-line with the MI Safe Schools Return to School Roadmap, which outlines required and recommended safety protocols for the 2020-21 school year based on the status of coronavirus in our community.

Spotlight: Vanderbilt Earns “A” Grade in Michigan’s Best Public Elementary Schools
Vanderbilt Charter Academy earned an “A” grade from the Mackinac Center for Public Policy on their 2019 Michigan Context and Performance (CAP) Report Card. Schools that are “beating the odds” stand out by this measure.
“Beyond raw test scores, the CAP report card helps parents see more clearly what kind of impact their school has on student learning,” said Ben DeGrow, director of education policy.
