THE SDCCS DIFFERENCE
Hands On Experiences & Project-Based Learning
Our innovative curriculum features hands-on learning at all grade levels, blended project-based teaching that develops cross-curriculum experiences, and cross-age classrooms to inspire peer learning and connection.
Arts, Environment, Service Learning
We embrace creativity with designated art and music programs, environmental education, and service learning opportunities that apply academics to life.
Students Who Care
Our students are empathetic learners who are engaged in the world around them. We value environmental stewardship and challenge our graduates to dream their futures through a lens of social justice.
Academics For All
Project-based learning encourages academically motivated students to explore topics at a pace that reflects their learning style. Our skilled counselors and specialists offer tutoring and academic support for students who qualify.
Amazing Field Trips
For all grade levels, we take learning outside the classroom to visit local museums, historical sites and environmental learning centers throughout the year.
Personal Connections
Our small school environment nurtures all learners through small class sizes and personal connections between our parents, teachers and staff. Our younger grades incorporate a looping model of teaching that enables teachers to better understand and support their students’ abilities.
Positive School Culture
Our progressive school embraces diversity and values each unique student. We are committed to maintaining a positive, warm and welcoming environment for all learners.
