“In May 2009, 23 students will graduate from Fall Creek Academy, one of the city’s first charter schools that started in 2002. Many of these students came to our school as sixth-graders but few could pass the ISTEP. In May, nearly all will graduate with at least 15 college credits. Our valedictorian will graduate with a high school honors degree and 30 college credits. She will enroll in a four-year university as a sophomore.The past six years have not been easy.” (10/06/08)
