Welcome to the Archimedean Academy
A Conservatory of Mathematics and the Greek Language. A Miami-Dade County Public Elementary Charter School, established in 2002.
We view Mathematics as both a poetry of abstract elegant Ideas and as an important instrument to model Nature, Science, Technology, Engineering, Economics and human behavior.
Greek Immersion
For centuries, the Greek language has been an important part of western civilization, with its deep connection to literature and scientific and humanistic vernacular. The teaching of the Greek Language in a partial immersion setting will bring to our students the benefit of bilingual education to the brain.

The educational philosophy of Archimedean academy is unique. It integrates immersion in Greek as a second language with a comprehensive mathematics curriculum. The mathematics curriculum combines traditional American mathematics: with an emphasis in problem solving and critical thinking with the Greek curriculum: with an emphasis in number sense, rigorous mental arithmetic with undertones of algebra and geometry.
