Project-Based Learning (PBL)
Students engage in hands-on, real-world problem-solving that fosters critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration. Our project-based approach integrates multiple disciplines—combining science, math, writing, and more—into meaningful challenges that inspire curiosity and innovation.
Socratic Discussion
Through Socratic discussion, students engage in thoughtful dialogue, exploring big ideas and challenging assumptions. Guided by open-ended questions, they develop critical thinking, active listening, and the ability to articulate and defend their perspectives.
Learner Driven
Students take ownership of their education in a learner-driven environment that fosters autonomy and self-confidence. By setting goals, making decisions, creating their own schedules, and engaging in meaningful work, they develop independence, resilience, and a passion for lifelong learning.
Fitness
We integrate fitness into daily learning to strengthen both body and mind. Through movement, strength training, and breathwork, students build resilience, focus, and confidence.
Outdoor Free Play
Outdoor free play gives children the space to take risks, develop problem-solving skills, and build social connections. Time in nature encourages curiosity, adaptability, and emotional resilience, allowing kids to recharge and return to learning with renewed focus and creativity.
Community Engagement

We connect learning with real-world impact by inviting community members to share their expertise and guiding students in projects that benefit the community. Through service and stewardship, learners develop responsibility, leadership, and a deeper connection to the world around them.
We Live by a Code:
Integrity, Bravery, Compassion, Politeness, Honesty, Honor, Loyalty
