Roots to grow, wings to fly
At Russell Byers Charter School, our mission is to provide students with roots to grow and wings to fly. We offer a safe, stimulating environment with a rigorous academic education, grounded in EL Education (formerly known as Expeditionary Learning). Through our unique approach, students thrive and take responsibility for their own learning to become powerful communicators, creative problem solvers, and compassionate, engaged citizens.
