Who We Are
We are people who believe that adolescent education needs to be oriented towards helping students see themselves as an integral and essential part of their communities and of society. As teenagers make the transition into adulthood and engage such fundamentally human questions as What role do I play in the world? How can I make a difference? and Who am I?, they need to be immersed in experiences that address and honor these questions. Adolescents are entering an adult world, one that increasingly requires critical and creative thinking, deep observation and analysis, and the ability to collaborate and communicate clearly and effectively. Navigating this world requires compassionate guides and respectful mentors. Navigating this world also requires academic skill, social adeptness, and emotional confidence. These characteristics are learned by engaging real problems with deep meaning, and by doing so with people who can simultaneously push each student to excel and nurture him or her through the learning process.
Our Mission
To create an intensive, experiential learning environment for adolescents that is committed to educational excellence and the development of self-awareness through community action, and humanitarian and ecological responsibility.
Our Vision
To help create sustainable and thriving human and ecological communities.
experiences are genuine and meaningful.”
-Harry Weekes, Head of School
