WHAT WE ARE ABOUT
Urban Planning & Historical Preservation
Founded in 2018, Charette Charter High School is a college-prep, community-based public high school committed to educating and empowering Providence students. Known for fostering strong, trusting relationships between students, teachers, and families, Charette holds all students to high academic expectations while addressing their unique needs holistically.
Our school is deeply rooted in a love for the city of Providence, drawing applicants exclusively from within its boundaries. At Charette, we believe in educating the whole student academically, socially, and emotionally, helping them thrive in school and life. Charette was designed with a unique focus on urban planning and historic preservation, inspiring students to recognize their critical role in shaping a city they love to call home. Through this theme, students actively engage with their community, cultivating critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership skills while becoming active participants in civic life.
Charette’s high-quality curriculum provides a personalized, student-centered approach to education. This enables students to set goals, track their progress, and develop essential skills like time management and self-directed learning, preparing them for success in college, careers, and beyond.
