Our Community
Enlace Academy is a grassroots charter school that launched in 2013 on the west side of Indianapolis, serving K-8th grade.
The name Enlace derives from the Spanish word for link or connection. Our school seeks to be the hub of community for families and to create meaningful connections with community partners, so our students, staff, and families can be healthy and happy. Enlace Academy cultivates the competence and the character of our students so they can become leaders who choose their own futures in high school, college, and beyond.
Enlace Academy celebrates the diversity of its students, staff and families and creates genuine relationships, so all stakeholders can be their best and most authentic selves. Enlace Academy's community includes all of its staff, family, students and local partnerships and community members and the school's strength is driven by the strong connections between these stakeholders.
Our Values and Beliefs
Enlace Academy was founded on the core belief that,
“All Children Can and Will Learn."
We fulfill this belief through a deep commitment to our core value of “Lead with Love.” Leading with love means cultivating genuine relationships and pairing high expectations with strong support.
Lead with Love means that we prioritize both academics and relationships to ensure our students feel loved and cared for each day.
