Building understanding
In constructivism, learners connect new ideas with experience, ask questions and reflect on what they understand. The school’s approach places children in an active role in their learning.
Projects with purpose
Project-based learning begins with real-world questions or challenges. The school connects it with critical thinking, collaboration, creativity and communication. A meaningful project lets a child explain the learning behind the finished work.
English and Spanish in school life
The school states that each grade has English and Spanish teachers. Ask how your child’s starting level in each language is supported and how progress is shared with families.
The reviewed pages do not specify a verified percentage of hours in each language or guarantee an individual language certification. Discuss these details during your visit.
Values and history
Curiosity, empathy, responsibility and independence are part of the philosophy. The educational community began working together in 2014; El Árbol Azomali was established in August 2019.
