REDFORD SERVICE LEARNING ACADEMY CAMPUS

Redford Service Learning Academy Campus is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the Detroit Service Learning Academy school district, located in Redford, MI with about 420 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 8th 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 22 teachers, Redford Service Learning Academy Campus has a student/teacher ratio of about 19:1. 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.

The Redford Service Learning Academy (RSLA) is a public charter school located in Redford, Michigan, dedicated to combining rigorous academic standards with a heavy emphasis on community involvement and civic responsibility. As implied by its name, the school integrates "service learning" into its curriculum, encouraging students to apply classroom knowledge to real-world projects that benefit the local community. This approach is designed to help students develop leadership skills, empathy, and a strong sense of social awareness while mastering core subjects like mathematics, literacy, and science.

The campus, situated on Grand River Avenue, serves as a hub for student development, often prioritizing a personalized learning environment where educators work closely with students to meet their specific developmental needs. By fostering a culture of giving back, the academy aims to produce well-rounded graduates who are not only prepared for the next stages of their education but are also equipped with the character and practical experience necessary to be active, contributing members of society.
