Welcome

Children at all grade levels are guided to make connections about what they learn to the world around them.
Fernando Aguilar, CACS Director
Creative Arts Charter School is a highly collaborative, joyful community where every child is known well and appreciated for their unique attributes. Committed to instilling in our students a love for learning and an appreciation for intelligence in its multiple forms, our talented faculty provides an outstanding educational experience that equips students with a strong academic foundation and valuable life skills. We employ a constructivist philosophy to allow students to continually reflect on their own learning, pose their own questions, and pursue answers in a structured, but personalized environment.

At CACS, we strive to reach our goals through student-centered instructional approaches, cooperative, project-based learning activities, and an integration of the arts into the core curriculum. Children at all grade levels are guided to make connections about what they learn to the world around them. Throughout the year, students have the chance to showcase their work and talents in performances and exhibits in and around San Francisco.

Our website contains a wealth of information about our unique program and approach. The best way to get to know CACS though is to come see it in action. I invite you to tour our innovative, dynamic public school. I’m sure you’ll come away with a strong sense of our welcoming community, passionate faculty, and engaging learning environment.
