At Empower College Prep (ECP), the K-12 tuition-free public charter school offering a values-based, college preparatory education for every child in the family, we pack a lot of learning into each school day. As we celebrate the end of an incredible school year, we’re already looking ahead and making plans for another season of learning starting August 4th.
Dates to Remember
“Summer is a great time to rest and recharge so you can come back to school ready to tackle the new year. Spend time doing the things you like with the people you like. Just try not to forget everything!”
Nicholas Feagler, 6th grade science
While our scholars enjoy a laid-back summer schedule, we’ll be here meeting with new families interested in enrolling. Although some grades are approaching waitlists, we are enrolling new students in Kindergarten through high school with more space available in Kindergarten, 5th and 6th grade. Siblings of enrolled students receive priority on the waitlist.
K-8 Open House is Wednesday, July 30th 2-7 pm

“Do things to reset your motivation, goals, and plans for next school year. Do what you love and spend time with those you care about! Be safe and remember to focus on the things in your control. Continue to use those coping skills this summer!”
Yamilet Roman, High School Social Worker
In the weeks ahead, enjoy time with family and friends, rest, relax, and read!
Pro tip: Just 20 minutes of reading daily promotes brain development, improves listening skills, builds literacy, and elevates academic performance.
