                                  César Chávez Academy began operation in 1996 and has since expanded to four impressive southwest Detroit campuses. The academy now serves more than 2,000 students in grades K-12, maintains a waiting list, and is the second largest K-12 charter school in Michigan.

                                  César Chávez Academy successfully opened its fourth Detroit campus in 2009. Students at Chávez Academy thrive in the culturally diverse and bilingual environment. Hispanic students account for 88% of enrollment; 94% of students come from economically disadvantaged families and 35% are English Language Learners (ELL).
