Dixon School of Arts & Sciences serves grades K-8.
We're a private STEAM school that celebrates the diversity of race, gender, ethnicity and religion.
Our mission is to nurture high academic achievement through the use of the arts, positive learning environments, beneficial relationships & high-caliber instruction.
We tailor these experiences to individual student & family needs.
Dixon School of Arts & Sciences is a private, kindergarten
through 8th-grade school, serving at-risk youth living in Escambia
County, Florida.
We offer a world-class Fine Arts program as well as a robust
Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM)
curriculum.
Dixon was founded in 2008 to offer students an experience that
expands the boundaries of traditional public schools. Our goal is
to integrate core academics, engaging field trips, and the arts to
make each child thrive.
We encourage our scholars to aspire to attain post-secondary
education and assume meaningful, productive positions in the global
workforce.
Our motto is each child`s potential is like a pinwheel. By
exposing the blades of each student`s metaphorical pinwheels to
positive physical, mental, academic and spiritual stimulus, we
produce beautiful and unique results.
At last we have a dedicated phone number for suicide and crisis support. The Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is 988. More about it and suicide prevention here.
Seemingly never-ending school shootings prompted me to find out whether private schools were safer than public schools. Some answers and opinions on the matter here.
