Mission Statement
 
This program is offered to any high school student who is interested in an integrated approach to education.  This interdisciplinary project will seek to present links across and within the traditional curriculum of Science, English, Math, and History.  Students will ask critical questions and engage in problem solving that utilizes verbal/linguistic, logical/mathematical, visual/spatial, body/kinesthetic, musical/rhythmic, interpersonal and intrapersonal styles of learning (see Assessment for details). Additionally, students will be asked to be active members of their community, both within the alternative program and the community-at-large.  This involvement is intended to cultivate positive relationships to their selves, their social milieu, and their physical environment.
