“ I chose to spend my time at Envision rather than any other school because of the high expectations they have for me. I am very thankful to be surrounded by people who want to see me succeed, and this is exactly how the staff at Envision treats me. The standards they have don’t allow me to give less than I am capable of, and require me to always put my best efforts forth.”
— Envision Academy Alum, Milan Gibson

“The hardest part of life is navigating through finding our place in the world. Having a supportive learning environment, like I have at Envision, was honestly how I was able to find my morals, beliefs, and self-awareness. I felt like I belonged, I had a purpose.”

Voluntary Withdrawal Process
Once admitted to and enrolled at Envision Academy, students will be exempted from the lottery in subsequent years so long as the student remains enrolled. Each year, students enrolled will submit a completed Charter School Re-Enrollment Form no later than the published deadline (typically June 1) or the student may be considered to have voluntarily disenrolled.
If a student wishes to withdraw from Envision Academy during the school year, an administrator will first have a conference with the student and their parent/guardian to determine how the Charter School can better meet their needs. If the student still wishes to withdraw, Envision Academy will obtain the name of the school to which the student is transferring and provide contact information and cumulative records for the student to the transferring school or district
