Learning.
Our Learner Driven Communities are run mostly by our Eagles, where closely connected families of lifelong learners are bound by clear covenants; and “Learning to Do” and “Learning to Be” are even more important than “Learning to Know.”
"Embracing rigor is part of saying 'yes' to a Hero's Journey. Deep learning brings a special sense of joy, but the mastery required for a Hero's Journey goes even further, requiring commitment, discipline and hard work towards a worthy goal."
A LEARNER-DRIVEN COMMUNITY
Community Covenant
Students create and sign a Contract of Promises describing how each individual will act and the consequences for violating community norms.
Multi-Age Studios
Mentor teams encourage younger and older students to listen, affirm, set goals and hold each other accountable.
Self-Paced Learning
Driven by curiosity, students journey through their academics setting their own goals and working at their own pace.
