- Academy for Academic Excellence
The Academy for Academic Excellence (AAE) is a K-12 public charter school located in Apple Valley, California. The school was first chartered in 1997 by the Apple Valley Unified School District. The AAE is a direct-funded charter school operating as its own Local Educational Agency (LEA). The school currently operates two sites, a K-2 site and a 3-12 site located on 150 acres adjoining the Mojave River. The current student population stands at slightly under 1000 students. Although started as an independent study school, the Academy for Academic Excellence has become a full-time school that operates as most traditional schools do.
The Academy for Academic Excellence is run by the Lewis Center for Educational Research (LCER), a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. The CEO of the Lewis Center is Rick Piercy, a former kindergarten teacher with Apple Valley Unified. The principal of the Academy for Academic Excellence is Chip Kling. The AAE has a full-time teaching staff of 44 members.
The AAE has demonstrated a significant increase in state testing results each year. The AAE is also received a full-term accreditation from WASC in 2005, and received a California Distinguished School Award in 2007 [ [http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/sr/cs/ap/distingyear.asp?year=2007 Distinguished School Awards - California School Recognition Program (CA Dept of Education) ] ] . Most recently, the AAE was named a Certified Charter School by the California Charter Schools Association. Only 39 charter schools in California have received this recognition.
