Why an Athlos School?

Athlos Academy schools are tuition-free charter schools, and enrollment is open to children in elementary school who live in West Allis and all surrounding areas. Athlos brings choice in education to parents looking for an educational experience that will challenge and support their children in a way traditional public schools may not.

The Athlos innovative three-pillar model supports students academically, physically, and with character development. Athlos students are prepared to take on all of life’s challenges.

How Can I Help??

We are working to bring an Athlos school to your area, however, to do so, we need your help. We need continued evidence that your community is ready for additional school choice in order to be approved.
