What Parents Should Know
At 84 students, I Dream Pcs is on the smaller side. That usually buys more individual attention and teachers who know every kid by name, with the trade-off of fewer electives and extracurriculars than a larger school can staff. Ask what activities it actually offers.
At 6.5:1 students to teachers, I Dream Pcs sits well below the national average. Smaller classes like that usually mean more one-on-one time between students and teachers.
I Dream Pcs is a charter school: publicly funded, but run with more independence than a traditional district school. Many charters are built around a specific model or focus, so it's worth understanding this one's mission, how enrollment works, and how it differs from the district schools nearby.
