Founding Group
Parents, educators, and the Visalia Unified School District established Charter Home School Academy (CHSA) in 1998 in order to offer families in our area an educationally sound kindergarten through eighth grade educational program. Currently, CHSA occupies the former YMCA site in Visalia, California. As a VUSD sponsored charter school, the Academy is supported by the resources and administrative policies of VUSD in guiding parents and students. VUSD administrative leadership and certificated teachers offer professional training to participating families in order to facilitate the students’ educational program.
