WHO WE ARE

Where Students Are Known

The whole child is at the heart of our progressive, project-based and place-based curriculum. Our Preschool – 8th Grade program fosters academic excellence in a nurturing environment where students are known and prepared to know the world.

21st Century Proficiency

Self-Efficacy

 

Self-Efficacy

Our students are positioned to address the personal and professional challenges that life throws at them. We stretch our students to go beyond their intended goals, thereby learning their potential is boundless.

Complex Problem Solving

 

Complex Problem Solving

At the heart of Project-Based Learning is critical analysis. SK's multidisciplinary approach requires our students to adapt, edit, and thoughtfully assess every aspect of the process. Our teachers support and challenge students as they seek answers and form new ideas.

Creativity

 

Creativity

SK students resolve beyond the obvious, and step above logical thinking, advancing to lateral thinking.

Emotional Intelligence

 

Emotional Intelligence

Our students recognize the value of connection to collaboratively resolve complex problems.

Decision Making

 

Decision Making

Confident decision making requires both qualitative and quantitative data to inform a decision before acting on a conclusion.

Service Focused

 

Service Focused

SK extends itself beyond the borders of the school walls by encouraging students to be active participants in the community.

Adaptive Communication

 

Adaptive Communication

Learning the mechanics of oral and written communication is important, but it has nothing to do with applying these skills. Synthesizing the skills of emotional intelligence, creativity, and problem-solving, our students design strategic plans to communicate and act effectively.

International Intelligence

 

International Intelligence

SK students explore the world by embracing human diversity. We seek out varied points of view and learn from those whose lived experiences are different from our own. As the world gets smaller, our students’ perspectives broaden.
