Directions

Curriculum at its best addresses the "whole child", with attention to developmentally appropriate cognitive, creative, social, emotional, spiritual, and physical needs and opportunity.
  • With the design of our curriculum and graduation requirements, students take classes in all subject areas and disciplines. These requirements, however, are flexible enough that students can choose the courses that fulfill them.

  • Older students, in particular, are allowed to choose classes that will best engage them in their own learning.

  • We honor art, theater, dance, sports, and service as integral parts of the curriculum.

  • Adolescent Health Issues (team taught by male and female teachers and required for graduation) engages students in conversations about drugs, body image, sex, and other health issues facing teens.

A student co-teacher for the Beginning Acting course oversees warm-up exercises.
