We believe that all children are born with the tools and talents they need to be self-driven, think critically, and focus on their community. Education should provide an encouraging environment, real accountability, challenging tasks, materials to work with, tools to find correct information, freedom to work collaboratively, and most of all, the courage to act and accomplish their chosen goals.
By creating a safe space for these intelligent minds to move, communicate, make big mistakes, and grow at their own pace, we hope to help them reach toward self-actualization–the process of rising toward their full potential as whole and confident human beings.
We chose the Phoenix as the name and logo for the school, because the phoenix is a symbol of growth and rebirth. We believe that as our students learn, grow, and deal with failure they will be able to come back even stronger than before.
