Winthrop Charter's new Middle School
Winthrop Charter School
Welcome to Winthrop Charter School. We are a tuition-free public charter school serving students in grades K-6 who reside in Hillsborough County. Winthrop Charter School is a member of the Charter Schools USA (CSUSA) family of schools and provides Hillsborough County with a great neighborhood school of choice.
Mission
The Winthrop Charter School provides students with the necessary tools and skills needed to develop superior levels of achievement. We strive for academic, social and physical excellence by providing a quality and challenging curriculum. We promote positive moral and social values, foster an atmosphere of self-discipline in a safe learning environment, and maximize individual productivity to meet the needs of a changing global society. Winthrop Charter School students will be able to maximize their potential for successfully actualizing their goals with confidence and intrinsic motivation, thereby enabling each student to become a lifelong learner and strong functional contributor to their local community as well as their global community.
What is a Charter School?
Charter schools are tuition-free public schools of choice, but each charter school is governed independently. Unlike traditional public schools, every charter school must demonstrate success, or it will lose its charter.
The Winthrop Charter School is a member of the Charter Schools USA family of schools. CSUSA is one of the largest providers of charter school management services in the nation. CSUSA manages private and municipal charters for grades Pre-K through 12.
