high school education
We believe all students are capable of learning when given age-appropriate and interesting material, access to their preferred communication method, and a safe and loving environment in which to thrive. We see relationships built on trust and joyful connection as the foundation for all growth. What truly sets us apart is how well we individualize each student’s learning experience, working with their strengths rather than focusing on what needs to change. We celebrate students exactly as they are and honor their potential.
Enrollment options: Monday-Friday, Full or Half days
Our high school curriculum is individualized for each student’s learning profile, strengths, and areas for growth. Rather than taking tests and completing worksheets, students in our classrooms enjoy project-based learning to actively engage with the content and demonstrate understanding of concepts. Project-based learning allows for student inquiry, collaboration, and self-assessment to guide the learning process. Each student has the opportunity to meaningfully contribute to a product based on their learning style and skillset, therefore everyone’s strengths and interests are valued.
Connections provides a pathway for students to earn all credits needed for a high school diploma, or students may choose to follow an individualized course of study with more emphasis on their areas of interest and their social-emotional development. We teach all core academic subjects and a variety of electives:
American Sign Language
Cooking and Life Skills
Health and Sexuality Education
Music and Fine Arts
Social Communication
Yoga, Physical Education, and more!
