Worcester Cultural Academy Charter Public School opened August 2023 and is chartered for grades K-4. As an EL (Expeditionary Learning) Education school, we believe in hands-on learning that focuses on three levels of student achievement: mastery of knowledge and skills, character, and high-quality work. What better way to teach than through experiences with our cultural partners? To name a few we partner with EcoTarium, Worcester Art Museum and Hanover Theater.
