Mississippi’s Top Charter for Third-Grade Reading Is Now Enrolling

Tuition-free STEM and college preparatory charter school encourages families to enroll before the July 30 deadline

CANTON, MS, UNITED STATES, July 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Enrollment is now open at SR1 College Preparatory & STEM Academy (SR1 CPSA), with families encouraged to apply before the July 30 enrollment deadline for the 2026–2027 school year. As Mississippi's first and only STEM-focused college preparatory public charter school, SR1 CPSA is currently accepting applications.

SR1 CPSA enters the new school year on the heels of record-setting academic success. This spring, 88% of its third-grade scholars met Mississippi's English Language Arts reading standards on their first attempt, outperforming every charter school in the state and exceeding the 2025 statewide average by nearly 13 percentage points.

The school's youngest scholars are also excelling, with 69% of kindergartners finishing the year reading at or above benchmark, including several students performing multiple grade levels ahead.

"Choosing the right school is one of the most important decisions a family can make," said Tamu Green, Founder of SR1 CPSA. "Our scholars are proving that with high expectations, exceptional educators and a college-preparatory STEM environment, Mississippi's children can achieve extraordinary results. We invite families to discover what makes SR1 CPSA different.”

Enrollment is open now for the 2026–2027 school year, when SR1 CPSA expands to serve fourth grade. To apply, schedule a tour, or learn more, visit sr1cpsa.org or email enrollment@sr1cpsa.org.
