All Amana Students Become Leaders of Their Own Learning

The family of Amana Academy Charter Schools is an educational community with a mission to academically prepare students to be 21st-century STEM leaders and changemakers. Our public schools are tuition-free and non-sectarian; and our unique educational model is rooted in the Harvard-based EL Education model – a pioneering organization in the world of socially-conscious project-based education that empowers kids to be leaders of their own learning, using design thinking and STEM to bring positive change to their communities.

Equitable Classrooms

Amana students come from diverse backgrounds and have unique perspectives yet they learn from each other to appreciate differences and embrace diversity of thought and experience. We meet every student where they are, and grow them to their fullest potential; their success is measured not just by grades, but also by the quality of their work and by how they demonstrate character.
