ABOUT ESPERANZA ACADEMY
Esperanza means hope.

Esperanza Academy Charter School (EACS) is located in the Hunting Park section of North Philadelphia and prides itself on serving the students in the community in which it is located.

During the school year, Esperanza Academy will serve grades:

As a result, we are relentless in our pursuit to provide our students with the best educational option in the Philadelphia area.

Our proven track record of improving outcomes for historically underserved students sets us apart.

The Academy has 11th-grade test scores above the city of Philadelphia average and value-added math and reading proficiency growth among the highest in Pennsylvania.
