    About APR

    Academy of the Pacific Rim Charter Public School (APR) is a tuition-free, public charter school offering a rigorous, college preparatory program in Grades 5-12 to 540 students from Boston. For 25 years, APR has empowered diverse learners (90% students of color; 11% English Learners; 25% on IEPs) of all racial and ethnic backgrounds to achieve their full intellectual and social potential through high-quality academic and enrichment programs to promote college and career exploration, cultural immersion, and community service. Our supportive and inclusive community actively counters patterns of inequity through dynamic learning partnerships between staff, students, and families. This work is grounded in the vision that all students graduate with a focused mind and a big heart, having the critical thinking, mastery of academic and social skills and a deep sense of self and others to joyfully pursue post-secondary education, careers, and civic life based on their passions and interests. Our 570+ alumni have a six-year college graduation rate of 70% - double the national average of their demographic peers.
