School Curriculum

Curriculum
Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking - learning naturally results.
John Dewey

A progressive curriculum is designed by identifying student areas of interest and passion, incorporating a rich program of cross-curricular courses of study, and implementing student-centered assessment to determine measures for success. While our curriculum can be confusing for people more used to a “TV-tray” version of content, our staff and students are easily able to deconstruct units to directly tie content-specific strands back to national and state standards. We know from research on gifted and talented students that integrated curriculum is the best fit for minds that naturally want to find connections and deeper meaning that are not allowed for in traditionally structured limited-content coursework.
