PHOENIX ELEMENTARY ACADEMY COMMUNITY DAY

Phoenix Elementary Academy Community Day is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Fresno Unified school district, located in Fresno, CA with about 65 students offering grade levels from 1st Grade to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 7 teachers, Phoenix Elementary Academy Community Day has a student/teacher ratio of about 9:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Phoenix Elementary Academy Community Day (PEACD) is a specialized school located in Fresno, California, that operates under the Fresno Unified School District. It is designed as an alternative educational setting that provides a structured, supportive environment for students who may require additional behavioral, social, or academic intervention. The school focuses on small class sizes and personalized instruction to help students develop the self-regulation and study habits necessary to succeed when they eventually transition back to their traditional home schools.

The mission of the academy centers on fostering a positive, safe, and collaborative community where both staff and students work toward restorative goals. By integrating academic rigor with intensive social-emotional support, the school aims to address the root causes of behavioral challenges. Through this community-focused approach, Phoenix Elementary Academy seeks to empower its students to overcome obstacles and build the confidence and accountability required for long-term educational success.
