Across the school, the core curriculum content is taught in traditional subject domains, but with an integrated and practical application incorporating the 21st-century skills of creativity, critical thinking, collaboration and communication. Our focus is on character education, mastery of skills and producing high quality work rather than test taking as we seek to make feedback relevant and meaningful.
