School Notes:

    We provide an academically challenging curriculum accompanied by a systematic framework for skillful decision-making and problem solving. Based on this premise, we teach students how to think, not what to think. Students, families and faculty thrive in a culture of encouragement, respect and acceptance. Together, we build essential skills and Habits of Mind that lead to life-long success. We are dedicated to maximizing each student’s potential emotionally, socially and physically.  We believe:
    • Students’ passions and personal strengths matter and influence how they learn and what they learn.
    • Differentiated Instruction, the creative use of technology and Critical Thinking serve as catalysts for innovative learning environments that inspire students to explore their interests.
    • Developmental progress is as relevant as grade levels and curriculum.
    • We prepare students to navigate, with confidence and enthusiasm, a future that can only be imagined.
