REALM Charter School Archive
An independent archive of a Berkeley charter school that operated from 2011 to 2019

What the school stated it believed

Love, grit, action

REALM published its principles under the heading love, grit and action. The formulation was deliberate and unusually plain for a public school: relationships as the precondition for learning, persistence through work that is genuinely hard, and projects that leave the building and affect someone.

The original statement is not reproduced here. This archive does not republish the school's own text, and it does not speak for the school. What is described above is the framing as it appeared in public reporting and in the school's own published headings.

How the principles translated into daily structure is described on the program page.

This page is an archive record. REALM Charter School closed in June 2019. Nothing on this page is an active service, offer, or invitation, and no information is collected here.
