Non Discrimination Policy
Arizona Charter Academy is a free public charter school and admission into Arizona Charter Academy is not limited based upon race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, gender, income level, disabling condition, proficiency in the English language, immigration status, or athletic ability. The school does however limit admission to students within a given age group or grade level, as per classroom/building capacity. Arizona Charter Academy may refuse to admit any student who has been expelled from another educational institution or who is in the process of being expelled from another educational institution.
Child Find Screening
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA) requires that public school agencies ensure all children (from birth through age 21) with delays or developmental disabilities are identified, located, and evaluated to receive the supports and services they need. This includes all children living within the geographic boundaries of the school district – those who are homeless or wards of the state, are attending private schools, or are home schooled. Public schools and the Arizona Early Intervention Program are responsible for “finding” eligible children and providing services needed for them to reach their developmental milestones or meet their educational needs.
Early intervention supports and services assist families of eligible children by helping children ages birth to 3 years develop to their full potential. In Arizona, early intervention services are provided through the Early Intervention Program (AzEIP).
