Our mission is to establish a dynamic learning community that focuses on equity, values the unique experiences, skills, needs, capacities, and contributions of each individual student and promotes respect and responsibility. We have high expectations for all students' academic performance including a rigorous curriculum that stresses inquiry skills and includes long-term, project-based investigations leading to literacy in all subject areas. Through community problem-solving, our students are empowered with a zest for knowledge, a freedom to wonder and make real world connections, opportunities to conduct their own inquiries, and actively apply school-based learning to improve their community.
