A small "school of choice"...

There are no more than 400 students in grades 9 through 12 from all over the greater Metropolitan Area. Research has shown that many students fare better in a smaller setting. We insure that every one of our students is known well by at least one caring adult with a personalized pathway supporting their goals.  

"Wall to wall" project-based learning...

Project Based Learning is an instructional approach built upon authentic learning activities that engage student interest and motivation. These activities are designed to answer a question or solve a problem and generally reflect the types of learning and work people do in the everyday world outside the classroom.
