COLE ACADEMY

Cole Academy is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the Cole Academy school district, located in LANSING, MI with about 209 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten 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 9 teachers, Cole Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 23:1.
