Paideia is a tuition-free public charter school, offering year-round education to the southern suburbs of Minneapolis/St. Paul.  Pronounced Pi-day-ah, the name of our school means "education of a child" in the fullest sense.  More than that, it means an opportunity for parents and teachers to have a real partnership in the learning process.  Think of it as public school with a private school feeling.

Opened in 2005, Paideia Academy serves grades K-8.
