Content Specific Classes

Multi-Disciplinary, theme-integrated experiences

We believe that the high school experience should emulate college as closely as possible. Our classes will be different lengths depending on their needs and will not meet every day. Students will have project work time built into their schedules.

Through project based learning, we will create an environment where Teachers are Mentors, and Students are Creators. Building on their knowledge of the urban environment, students can serve as co-designers of the curriculum and inform project development.

We will create an environment where students can articulate competencies and pursue them through a variety of pathways including courses, collaborative/integrated projects, and individualized projects.
