High School Teaching Philosophy Overview
High School should be a journey of dynamic academics. It should include hands-on experiences, creative inquiry, artistic exploration, and meaningful human connection. As the journey through adolescence unfolds, the outer and inner world reflect in each other.
In the High School years, we strive for our students to become active learners. We want them to become creative, flexible thinkers with the confidence to face the challenges of our complex, interconnected world.
Jamie York Academy meets adolescents at their particular stage of development with content that engages and challenges them, whatever their ability level. Our approach and our curriculum assist students in developing their ability to think, to create, and to do meaningful work in the world.
Our curriculum meets the needs of the developing adolescent. It acknowledges their inner and outer struggles. It also supports the development of the wisdom of what it means to be human. High school students can pursue their own intellectual, creative, artistic, and physical pursuits while learning how to contribute to the greater good of the world.
