We are incredibly proud to share that Guahan Academy Charter School has been recognized by Education Insider Magazine as a “Top Public School 2026.” This recognition reflects the family-centered and standards-driven community we continue to build together.

At GACS, belonging means being part of a home. From Kindergarten through Grade 12, our students are supported through rigorous instruction, data-driven decision-making and intentional preparation for college and careers.

This achievement belongs to our students, families, faculty, staff, leadership, Board and community partners whose dedication brings our campus to life every day.

As our CEO, Ms. Ann Margarett Santiago, shared: “We do everything with a sense of purpose. It is very intentional and we are data driven. We do not compromise standards or the rigor of the curriculum.”

Thank you for believing in GACS and helping us create a school community that families continue to choose and choose again. Together, we are building a home that make lasting impact in our student's lives. 🎉
