Lowell Community Charter Public School is a charter school serving students in Lowell, a city in the Merrimack Valley roughly 25 miles northwest of Boston. Lowell is known for its role as one of the birthplaces of the American Industrial Revolution, with its historic mill complexes now preserved within the Lowell National Historical Park. The school operates as a public charter institution, offering an alternative to the traditional district schools in the city. The district does not operate a high school, so students are served through the charter's grade levels as configured by the school.
