What Sets Our Curriculum Apart
As a parent, you know your child is more complex than just their academic success. At Premier Charter School, we understand that as well. We find that when students are provided the skills they need to grow personally, they can naturally learn more deeply about the world around them.
Innovative Teaching Methods
Education has increasingly become focused on preparing students to take the next test. At Premier Charter School, we don't believe that approach does justice to our students or helps them reach their full potential. Instead, we work together to help each student learn the skills they need in many areas of their life.
Our educational approach uses inquiry-based academics, encouraging students to harness their curiosity and develop habits that help them academically and personally blossom. We also understand that academic growth isn't isolated from the rest of a child's experience, so we use a whole-child approach to education. We provide social-emotional support, healthy activities, and plenty of space to play.
When students are in an environment that meets their needs, we find that they can fully interact with our academic approach. We focus on interactive learning opportunities that allow students to truly engage in the concepts they're studying. This is much different from focusing on testing proficiency, instead helping students become inquisitive, active, and lifelong learners.
Comprehensive Skill Development
Our curriculum is designed to prepare students to be successful students in high school. We teach well-developed literacy, excellent math skills, and habits that encourage academic success. However, academic achievement isn't our only goal.
We also work to develop students' sense of curiosity and to impart critical thinking skills. Especially in the modern digital world, it's more important than ever that students have the ability to interrogate ideas and pursue the truth.
Armed with reliable information, they are encouraged to make thoughtful, deliberate choices to help them see the results they want in both their lives and their community.
Students are also taught to understand and manage their own emotions. This helps them self-regulate and approach others with compassion, so they can seek solutions that include others' needs as well as their own. They are encouraged to listen to the viewpoints of others and to treat all people with respect.
Tailored Learning Experiences
Students are grouped into grades, but the truth is that developmental differences within each grade can vary widely. Our staff is trained to take note of students' interests and struggles. With this insight, they can adapt their instruction and create learning experiences that meet each student's individual needs.
Teachers strive to provide classroom environments that are tailored to where their students are, whether they are struggling with the material or need more advanced learning opportunities. Many factors impact children's ability to learn, so each student has needs that are unique to them and what they are experiencing at the time.
A struggling student may be impatiently asking for more challenging learning opportunities within the same school year. It's vital to their success that each need is equally met. Our staff works hard to meet each student where they are, helping them through the natural ups and downs of their learning years.
