Small classes capped at 12 students explore academic content through thematic educational "journeys" leading to a deep exploration of big ideas. Through meaningful experiences, students practice the process of learning and then apply their new-found knowledge through large-scale self-driven projects. Students learn by engaging with the world around them by taking weekly excursions around the Bay Area, working with local experts, and understanding that they are meaningful members of their community. In today's world, successful humans seek out problems and develop working solutions; our curriculum is focused around this idea. We are fiercely committed to racial, social and environmental justice. Our skilled and passionate educators prioritize utilizing the natural world and larger community as fundamental resources to learning. Want to help students build a wind turbine? Calculate trash on California beaches? Write and publish a novel?
