Pembroke Academy, a tuition-free public charter school in Detroit, Michigan, teaches kindergarten through eighth grade. Pembroke Academy is a National Heritage Academies member that uses high standards, clear expectations and personalized teaching to help children thrive.
Placement tests help teachers determine a child’s education level, but Pembroke is about so much more than test scores. It emphasizes college preparedness, morals and character-building. To model compassion and courage, for example, the school offers community service opportunities starting in kindergarten.
Pembroke Academy encourages critical thinking with science, technology, engineering, arts and math, or STEAM. In addition to the standard curriculum, the school offers advanced classes and opportunities for leadership and enrichment through computer coding, Mandarin, woodworking, Black history, music, robotics and debate.
Young children learn about the natural world through hands-on activities like raising butterflies. They connect to their peers through book fairs, talent shows and school carnivals. For athletics, grades three through seven can sign up for soccer, basketball or cheerleading.

My grandson has been in the school for three and a half years everybody knows his name everybody treats him like family they know him on his good days they know him on his bad days the school cares about the children learning and safety!!!
12/21/2022
It is a good school with good academics, as long as you try hard. I have seen a lot of people struggle here because they don't try. There is also a LOT of drama or things that happen that tend to be alarming such as bathrooms constantly shut down from flooding. Overall the teachers are nice if you try and the classes are hard but they are supposed to be to help you learn

This school has been great so far for my son. He has been learning a lot of important values, and I love that the school has a “Moral Focus” class. It really teaches children values that are usually left out of the school curriculums, and that they really need in life. The communication is great as...
