Raising the Educational Bar in Central Santa Ana
Edward B. Cole Academy started out with 87 students and now teaches 340 students! It is strategically located in Central Santa Ana. With problems like overcrowding and lack of technology in public schools, starting a public charter school became the answer to the need of the children in this community. Our presence in this neighborhood has not only made it a safer place, but has also made quality education available to children in that area.
