Charter Arts is an audition-based public charter school that provides a comprehensive curriculum for high school students, grades 9-12, who have a dedicated passion for the creative and performing arts. Students major in one of seven artistic areas: dance, instrumental music, literary arts, production arts, theatre, visual arts, or vocal music.

Any student entering 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade who resides in Pennsylvania is eligible to audition. The school’s current student body hails from a ten-county region in eastern Pennsylvania. Audition appointments for the 2024-2025 school year are by appointment only. More information about auditions is available on the admissions page of the school website.

Charter Arts’ rigorous curriculum fosters both academic and artistic excellence for its students. The school’s impressive Future Ready PA Index ranking, Advanced Placement (AP) exam statistics, Keystone Exam statistics, SAT scores, prestigious artistic accolades, and graduation rate, are testaments to the outstanding education that Charter Arts provides.

Charter Arts was ranked as #1 Best Charter High School in PA & #2 Best Public High School Teachers in PA on Niche’s 2024 Best Schools in America Rankings.
