John Rex Charter Elementary School recently announced its expansion to sixth grade for the 2018 school year. It will be housed at the Myriad Botanical Gardens.
Fifth-graders will be offered a seat in the school, which will be housed in the lower-level classroom and event spaces below the Crystal Bridge. With the help of a $700,000 grant from Inasmuch Foundation, the Gardens will transform event space into flexible classrooms for the 80-seat sixth-grade class.
The board anticipates adding a seventh grade at the Myriad Botanical Gardens in 2019, with plans for eighth grade under review.
