Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into
the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes the practice of freedom,
the means by which men and women deal
critically and creatively with reality and discover
how to participate in the transformation of their world.

-- Paulo Freire     



Dear Family,

I'm excited about having your child in my class and
am looking forward to a happy and productive semester.

Small Learning Communities

Your child is enrolled either in the Performing Arts or the Visual Arts Small Learning Community (SLC). An SLC is a small school within
a large school. SLCs aim to create positive environments that lead
to constructive relationships among students, teachers, and staff.


Humanitas

To further enhance the learning experience and help students make connections across disciplines, the English and History teachers
of the Performing and the Visual Arts SLCs follow the Humanitas
model of collaboration, working as teams to create interdisciplinary
units organized around unifying themes.
