| What is LEAP Academy? The Leadership, Education, and Partnership (LEAP) Academy University Charter School is a Preschool–12 public charter school in Camden, NJ that is dedicated to creating opportunities and improving conditions for the children and families of the city.
LEAP’s academic agenda focuses on college-preparatory learning and experiences intended to raise students’ college awareness, preparedness, and attendance. Our holistic learning curriculum develops excellence in the classroom by supporting our students’ outside needs through health (physical and emotional) and nutrition programs, comprehensive services, and a variety of community service and experiential opportunities. Since 2005, LEAP has seen all four of its graduating classes achieve 100% college acceptance—a measure of our commitment to providing children and families in Camden with opportunities for advancement. Local and national organizations have recognized LEAP for its groundbreaking work in education. In 2003, LEAP received an inaugural New Jersey Public Charter School Exemplary School Award and a 2002—2003 Pioneer Award from the New Jersey Department of Education. The Annie E. Casey Foundation also called LEAP a “Sign of Hope” and one of Camden’s “Recent successes in improving its overall academic environment and expanding civic engagement". |
