Smythe Academy of Arts and Sciences

Smythe Academy of Arts and Sciences is a public charter school in Sacramento, CA. It is a school in the Twin Rivers Unified School District that serves students in grades K–8. The school has about 1,130 students and about 23–24 students for every teacher, which is a little higher than the state average. Smythe Academy's curriculum is rich and includes art, science, and technology. It also stresses getting parents involved and learning through projects. The school also has a full-day preschool program and things for kids to do after school to keep them interested. There are a lot of different kinds of students, but most of them are Hispanic, Asian, Black, White, or mixed race. Many students can get meals for free or very little money. There are still chances for students to do better in school because only 25–30% of them are good at math and 35–38% are good at English Language Arts (ELA). The amount of money spent on each student is the same as the amount of money the state and district give. Smythe Academy of Arts and Sciences is a great place to learn because it has a lot of different activities and focuses on helping students grow and learn in many different ways.
