Our Innovative Model

Our learning model centers around mastery-based progression, powered by student choice and a blend of both adaptive online learning tools as well as teacher and student-led Socratic seminars that emphasize deeper learning and connections between subjects. We believe the following innovations will enable our students to reach bold outcomes.

  • Partner with Girls Club of L.A. to provide parent training and support

 

Personalized Learning
  • All students have Individual Learning Plans
  • Weekly 1:1 Advisories
  • Personalized learning tools such as Summit Khan Academy, Achieve3000 to accelerate learning in ELA and math
  • Socratic curriculum in Humanities and STEAM
  • Culturally relevant courses in African American, Latino and global cultures
Computer Science
  • All students begin coding in kindergarten and advance to AP Computer Science
  • Students learn robotics, virtual reality, game design, and music engineering in Innovation Lab
