Aurora Charter School

Aurora Charter School provides a one-way dual development program for grades preschool through 8th that prepares its students to be fully bilingual and bicultural in both Spanish and English. Students will be held to learning standards mandated by the State of Minnesota through a dual-language curriculum in English and Spanish, and with the instruction of highly qualified teachers and other support staff, they will strive to close the achievement gap within the school. Aurora Charter School has been authorized by the Audubon Center of North Woods (ACNW) since 2006. The authorizing mission of ACNW is to ensure quality academic and environmental literacy outcomes for students in Minnesota by conducting effective oversight and evaluation of its authorized schools, providing strategic support to schools, and making informed and merit-based decisions about its portfolio of charter schools.
