ACE Charter School, a 5th-8th grade middle school which propels low-achieving students to academic proficiency, will open with 120 5th graders in 2008, and grow to a capacity of 400 students by 2011. The ACE Charter School will be located in east San Jose, California, in the Alum Rock School District. The school s mission is to recruit students in this under-resourced area who are already two or more years below grade level by the 5th grade and provide them with the remediation and acceleration they need to go off to high school ready to succeed in college-prep courses.
