CESAR CHAVEZ ACADEMY INTERMEDIATE

Cesar Chavez Academy Intermediate is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the Cesar Chavez Academy school district, located in DETROIT, MI with about 460 students offering grade levels from 3rd Grade to 5th 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 26 teachers, Cesar Chavez Academy Intermediate has a student/teacher ratio of about 17:1. 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.

Cesar Chavez Academy Intermediate, located at 4100 Martin St. in Detroit, is part of the larger Cesar Chavez Academy network, which is a prominent charter school system in Michigan managed by The Leona Group. Serving students in the middle school grades, the academy is known for its focus on providing a structured, academically rigorous environment for the local Southwest Detroit community. The school emphasizes a college-preparatory curriculum, aiming to bridge the gap between elementary education and high school readiness while maintaining a strong commitment to serving a predominantly Hispanic/Latino student population.

Beyond its core academics, the school places a significant emphasis on cultural identity and community involvement. It integrates bilingual support and culturally responsive teaching strategies to help students navigate both their academic requirements and their personal heritage. The campus operates within a tight-knit network that encourages parental engagement and long-term student success, often serving as a central pillar for families in the area who are seeking an alternative to the traditional district-run public school options.
