ESTABLISHED IN 2015

The Vibrant Minds Charter School Difference

Vibrant Minds Charter School is a TK through 6th grade, free, public charter school. The school first opened on Monday, August 17, 2015, as GOALS Academy. While providing a rigorous academic program, there is also a focus on discovering scholars’ interests and talents and transforming them into strengths through a plethora of enrichment activities. In order to provide this personalized mentoring, the school has a commitment to remain small, with an estimated maximum enrollment of 240 scholars in 2024-2025 school year, with a future enrollment of 468 scholars with a new campus in Central Anaheim​.

All opportunities are provided completely free of charge. Vibrant Minds Charter School is a sanctioned public school chartered under the authorization of the Anaheim Elementary School District and California Department of Education. It is an independent charter school, which provides the scholars, staff, and parents with the maximum autonomy to co-create a school that matches their hopes, vision, and reality. The past nine years have been phenomenal, with our maximum enrollment of  scholars met for the 2024-2025 school year with a waiting list of more than 400 scholars.

"We can't say enough good things about our school! They are true to their mission of developing interests into strengths by offering a wide variety of opportunities for every scholar, both in the regular school day and in the after-school program. Our girls have explored a number of musical instruments, cooking, sewing, coding, woodworking, dance, gymnastics, and vocal performance, just to name a few. And they have embraced a growth mindset as they learn how to tackle projects independently and as part of a team."  Alyssa T. ​
