OUR STUDENTS ARE HIGHLY ENGAGED LEARNERS AND MOTIVATED TO MASTER ACADEMIC CONTENT
Our schools are safe and respectful learning environments. Our schools build a culture of respect, responsibility, courage, and kindness-where students and educators are committed to quality work and citizenship. Students take responsibility for each other and for their learning and build leadership skills that help them excel.
Our students are highly engaged learners, motivated to master academic content and produce highly quality work. Our schools use discovery project based learning-which may result in original scientific reports, presentation to government officials, or urban renewal projects-to contribute beyond the classroom. Learning with a purpose helps students develop the academic skills and work ethic that prepare them for college and beyond.
We work closely with schools to provide the training and resources necessary to provide every student with a great teacher. Our teachers are trained to tailor instruction to help a diverse range of learners achieve. Our teachers are closing critical achievement gaps for English language learners and provide a supportive atmosphere of learning that accommodate all learning styles.
