Having developed the character needed to thrive in a diverse and ever-evolving society, these young visionaries want to make a difference, and that’s why we support their ability to make a real difference.
By the time eighth graders walk across the stage to receive their diplomas, they have not only acquired the academic skills necessary to meet the challenges of any high school, but they are also committed to making the world a better and more just place.
Every aspect of our program is specifically designed with high school minds in mind. The interdisciplinary curriculum encourages learners to embrace the adaptable entrepreneurial spirit needed to meet the challenges of a rapidly evolving world.
Learners practice key communication skills by developing strong interpersonal relationships and mastering purposefully selected technology tools, enabling them to become self-directed learners who apply critical thinking
