Academics on the Downtown Campus


Fostering Unique Potential in Preschool - Grade 8

Curious about new ideas, students make discoveries that inspire deeper learning.
Children learn best when they are in an environment in which they can explore, discover, and make connections in their world. At the Downtown Campus, we create a just and equitable place for students to engage in learning—a place that creates strength from the diversity in the classroom and community and regards each child as an individual, capable learner. Through our responsive teaching, our curriculum inspires curiosity, critical thinking, creativity, and perseverance through project-based learning.
 

CURRICULUM BUILT TO INSPIRE CURIOSITY, CRITICAL THINKING, & PERSEVERANCE
