About the School
Pioneer Charter School of Science (PCSS-I and PCSS-II) is a tuition-free public charter school network in Massachusetts, founded in 2007. It focuses on STEM education, particularly in mathematics and science, for students in grades K-12 who are educationally under-resourced. PCSS-I operates two campuses in Everett, serving K-8 and 9-12 students, while PCSS-II, located in Saugus, initially served grades 7-12 and has since expanded to include K-6. The mission of PCSS is to prepare students for competitive careers by fostering academic and social skills through a rigorous curriculum. This includes a strong emphasis on math and science, humanities, character education, and college preparation. The schools aim to create a safe and welcoming environment with high academic standards, ensuring that all students have the opportunity to achieve their potential and pursue higher education. Both campuses are Title I eligible, providing support to under-resourced families in the Greater Boston and
