Our goal is to cultivate an atmosphere that produces emotionally healthy, lifelong learners who become skilled communicators, creative thinkers and collaborative problem solvers who change the world.
When: Mondays, Tuesdays & Wednesdays from 8:30 am to 2:30 pm. The school year runs from September until May.
Classes: Spark Academy classes are typically groups of up to 13 students led by a full-time Guide. We group students by:
- Sparks (Usually 5 to 8 year olds) These students are still learning to read and write or learning to understand what they read. They use a lot of hands on manipulatives and play to spark their curiosity. These students need a little more assistance and encouragement from their guide.
- Flames (Usually 8 to 10 year olds) These students are now reading to learn. They can handle working on group projects and contributing. They are learning to set goals and organize their time. These students are able to work independently on their goals and can follow their plan.
- Blazes (Usually 11 to 13 year olds) These students are entering higher level thinking and assimilating their learning to make larger connections. They can have discussions on a wide range of topics and handle more complex projects and goal setting.
“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.” -W.B. Yeats-
