Classical Education. Revolutionary Schools.
About us
Since its inception, Great Hearts has been on a mission to become a national leader in public charter schools. We work tirelessly to ensure our students receive an outstanding classical liberal arts education. Our program is anchored in exceptional teaching from the best in the profession and the support of committed families who make each school a thriving community. Today, we serve more than 25,000 students at 45 academies across Arizona, Louisiana, and Texas as well as through our online academies. From our humble beginnings as a single entity in rented space, we have become Arizona’s largest not-for-profit charter school network, the largest “brick and mortar” classical education provider in the country, and we are excited about working with new partners to extend this education to eager students nationwide. We gladly prepare our graduates for success in the best universities in the nation, but our main purpose is the formation of the soul, heart, and mind. We believe that the highest goal of education is to become good, intellectually and morally.
