About Us

Mission, Vision & Principal's Welcome

The Family Life Academy Charter School is a vibrant, exciting and powerful place of learning.

The moment a child, parent or anyone enters our school they are embraced by an environment of high standards, high achievement, and a love of learning. It is an exhilarating experience when walking through the hallways and watching children working diligently with great enthusiasm.

We have a challenging and enriching curriculum that supports children in becoming critical thinkers and in obtaining the skills necessary to compete in our world. We believe in diversity and embrace families from all cultures that speak a language other than English. Students at FLACS are empowered to affirm others through words, deeds and actions.

Our faculty and staff believe that their work at FLACS is their vocation thus they have an unyielding passion and focus to do "Whatever It Takes!" to ensure the success of every single student in our school. Everyone is determined to introduce every child to a world larger than his or her own experiences, a world that expands a child’s personal boundaries and that enlarges his or her sense of community.

FLACS creates an environment that is passionate about community, family and learning!

Mission

The Family Life Academy Charter School, in Partnership with the Latino Pastoral Action Center and parents, seeks to empower all K-8 students to achieve high standards, help them take responsibility for their own learning, and encourage them to explore and affirm human values.

Vision

Like a family - and in collaboration with each family - the school will create an orderly, nurturing and dynamic environment where learning is engaging, meaningful, and joyful. All members of the school community (students, parents, and teachers) will develop the knowledge, skills, and enthusiasm to continue learning throughout their lives, expand their understanding of what is possible for themselves and their world, and lead productive and satisfying lives.
