Developmental Approach to Education
Students are at the center of all decision-making at PCS. We believe in a developmental approach to education and create experiences in alignment with individual student needs. It is our belief that young people thrive in an environment where they feel loved and valued and are encouraged to explore their own interests and passions.
Our North Star
Our work with students is guided by our North Star which focuses on both a solid academic foundation and the social-emotional skills needed for students to succeed beyond their time at PCS. Strong and trusting relationships are at the heart of our work with and amongst our students. We utilize intentional processes such as class meetings and inquiry-based learning to build social connections that truly support learning.
Five Graduate Aims
Specifically, we are committed to five graduate aims that are developed during a student’s time at PCS. These graduate aims are important life skills that provide opportunities for students to realize their personal power. We are honored to have a front row seat as we watch our students grow through their years at PCS. Witnessing the student agency and leadership take shape affirms our hope for the possibility of a better future.
