Archimedean Academy

What Archimedean Academy does

Archimedean Academy is the elementary (K-5) campus of Archimedean Schools, a public charter school system in Miami, Florida, founded in 2002 by a committee of Greek and Greek-American residents. The system comprises three conservatories—Archimedean Academy (elementary), Archimedean Middle Conservatory (AMC), and Archimedean Upper Conservatory (AUC)—along with the Archimedean Community Center (ACC), all operating under Archimedean Academy Inc., a Florida-registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit governed by a volunteer Board. The schools deliver a distinctive bilingual curriculum that fuses American and Greek mathematical traditions through Greek language immersion, supplemented by a Philosophy for Children program and Socratic-method teaching. Supporting technology infrastructure includes a 1:1 iPad program (Apple devices issued to all students with school retention and inspection rights), the CineMath digital content portal, and the Archie internal student information system.

The schools operate as public charter schools under Miami Dade Public Schools as the Local Educational Agency (LEA), receiving per-pupil allocation from public education funds. Tuition is free for all admitted students; admissions are administered through a lottery system with no preference for ethnic origin or academic ability. Supplementary revenue streams include donations through Network for Good (the Archimedean Fund), uniform sales through channel partner Dedalos Inc., and fees from the Community Center's before/after-school care, spring camp, and summer camp programs. Distribution is entirely campus-based at a single Miami location (12425 SW 72nd St., Miami, FL 33183), with go-to-market conducted through the school website, organic social media, community events (Greek Night, Havana Nights, Gala), and parent word-of-mouth referrals via the lottery system.

The system has accumulated multiple national and state-level recognitions: National Blue Ribbon School designations across all three conservatories (AA 2011, AUC 2018, AMC 2019), Florida Gold STEM designation (2025), Terrel Bell Award (2018), #1 in Florida Science Olympiad (2026) and #29 nationally, Top 13 Florida high schools ranking (2024), and recognition as "The Most Philosophical School in America." High school students may complete dual enrollment courses at Florida International University and Miami Dade College. Current enrollment at the elementary campus is 637 students against a campus-wide capacity of 1,300, with no announced expansion to additional campuses or geographies.
