Welcome to Flagship Charter Academy - Elevating Education, Building Character™

Flagship Charter Academy is a tuition-free public charter school in Detroit 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.

Meet Your Principal

"Each year brings different types of rewards, enthusiasm, and new challenges – all in the name of making an impact on student achievement. It shows when a student has graduated, but returns to see you just to fill you in on their progress. It is also rewarding to see the number of students that have made great academic gains because of their commitment to excellence as well as the hard work that our staff pour into our students."

- Nicole Woods, Principal at Flagship
