The Colorado Skies Academy has received an official charter authorization from the Colorado Charter School Institute (CSI), allowing the middle school to continue to offer educational experiences that cultivate student interest in aerospace and STEM fields. The academy is a tuition-free public charter school serving grades six through eight in Englewood, Colorado, with an aerospace-focused curriculum.
“Since 2019, the Colorado Skies Academy has been doing a tremendous job in shaping and opening young minds to the robust opportunities within the aviation industry. We applaud the Colorado Charter School Institute for issuing the charter authorization to the Colorado Skies Academy which allows the school to continue offering its unique and dynamic education programs. Studies have shown that early exposure to aviation, aerospace, and STEM disciplines helps foster future interest in these fields, and the middle school outreach being done at the Colorado Skies Academy has been exemplary,” said Pete Bunce, president and CEO of the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA).
