INNOVATIVE school uses project-based learning and interdisciplinary teaching methods to focus on inquiry, writing and research in math,
science and social science. Non-traditional methods are used to assess students, like oral presentations, symposiums or written publications. Very competitive
with high standards, but principal Brooke Jackson said students work “in support of one another’s learning rather than in isolation or competition.” Compassion, empathy and community are encouraged. College level courses are offered. Many student-run clubs. Shared gym.
