SOAR Charter Academy - San Bernardino

SOAR’s mission is to empower students to find their voice as they become confident, critical thinkers. Our program involves a culture that seeks to make a positive impact within the community. With an emphasis on the whole child, we strive to promote a growth mindset that will produce leaders who achieve consistent academic growth while discovering their personal unique gift.

SOAR’s focus is on the whole child. A strong academic program is only half of our vision. We integrate character education into a variety of aspects of our students’ school day. Children learn about character and apply what they learn by giving back to their community through community service projects. Students participate in these projects within their grade levels as well as individually with family support.
