George Crockett Academy

Located at 4851 14th Street in Detroit, Michigan, George Crockett Academy is an open, independent charter district operating within a vibrant large-city setting in the broader Detroit-Warren-Dearborn metropolitan region. Designed to serve families seeking a focused community-based public education, the single-school district provides a continuous academic pathway spanning pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. As an autonomous local educational agency for federal programs, the academy delivers an accessible primary and middle school environment committed to early childhood development and adolescent academic preparation.

During the 2024–2025 academic year, George Crockett Academy enrolled 341 students, maintaining balanced class cohorts from kindergarten through eighth grade, with student counts ranging from 31 to 46 learners per grade level. The student body is composed of 177 male and 164 female students, reflecting a predominantly Black student population (338 students) alongside multiracial and Hispanic learners. To foster individualized instruction and strong student development, the academy invests heavily in human resources, employing approximately 47 full-time equivalent teachers, 9 instructional aides, and nearly 50 dedicated support staff members. With over 105 total full-time equivalent staff members serving just over 300 students, the district maintains a remarkably low student-to-teacher ratio, ensuring robust learning support and tailored academic guidance across all grade levels.
