Art Mural

This mural was created by our talented students to celebrate our diverse community, shared values, and bright future. Each detail represents creativity, teamwork, and the spirit of learning that fills our halls everyday.

Art Description

“Our mural represents some of the different Arts. Each section has a unique design expressing a different art form. The arts are usually overlooked in school. So this mural is a reminder that they are just as important as any other subject we learn.”

What Makes Us Great

At Barack Obama Green Charter High School, students learn to question, experiment, problem solve, design and express their ideas. Our dynamic, collaborative curriculum is designed to stretch students’ ways of thinking and stimulate their natural curiosity of youth.

Research

Research & Discovery

Our faculty teach students to apply research and analytical skills to today’s pressing social, economic and environmental issues. They answer questions such as “What is effective that’s already being done? How can I make an impact now and in the future?”.

Business

Guest speakers are often invited to the school to share their professional knowledge and discuss their career experiences. Their workshops cover industry trends and business-related technology. Students have learned about effectively using social media, graphic design software and more.
