Wolfe Street Academy is a public charter school offering pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. It is operated by the Baltimore Curriculum Project, a local nonprofit organization. The school works in cooperation with the entire community to offer rigorous instruction, efficient management practices, and a culture of excellence. The school implements Reading Mastery, which provides a sequenced, rigorous curriculum. Grouping students in small skill-level groups allows each student to progress at his or her own pace academically. All students receive art, music and physical education several times each week.
