THE CAPITOL ENCORE ACADEMY

The Capitol Encore Academy is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the The Capitol Encore Academy school district, located in Fayetteville, NC with about 449 students offering grade levels from 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 32 teachers, The Capitol Encore Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. 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 Capitol Encore Academy (TCEA) is a tuition-free public charter school located in the heart of downtown Fayetteville, North Carolina. Serving students in grades K-8, the academy distinguishes itself through a unique educational model that integrates a rigorous core academic curriculum with a specialized focus on the performing arts. By embedding dance, music, theater, and visual arts into the daily school experience, TCEA aims to foster creative expression, build student confidence, and cultivate a well-rounded academic foundation.

Beyond its arts-integrated instruction, the academy emphasizes a supportive and inclusive school culture that leverages its downtown location to connect students with the local community. The school is committed to high academic standards and utilizes small-group instruction and collaborative projects to ensure individual student success. Through its blend of traditional academics and artistic exploration, The Capitol Encore Academy strives to develop "whole-child" learners who are prepared for both secondary education and the broader demands of the 21st-century workforce.
