The Big Picture Learning design is a dynamic approach to learning, doing, and thinking that has been changing the lives of students, educators, and entire communities since 1995. The design components are based on three foundation principles: first, learning must be based on the interests and goals of each student; second, student’s curriculum must be relevant to the people and places that exist in the real world; and finally, a student’s abilities must be authentically measured by the quality of her or his work.

The Community School wants to thank the middle school teachers, staff and students for graciously allowing us into their classrooms the past two weeks to educate them about our school!
 
Our 8th grade open house on April 18th was a huge success and we already look forward to next year's enrollment of students eager to take their learning into their own hands. For 8th graders who could not make the event, please download the application and submit to our main office as soon as possible.

    SUBJECT:        Notice: Pesticide Application!

    The unwanted weed and grass control spray will be applied to the shrub beds and mowing strips on May 1st. This spray is to control unwanted grass and weeds in the shrub beds, around the trees and along the street curb areas.   Our school has taken steps to keep school children away from these areas for 24 hours following the application of spray. We would like to ask that you and your children refrain from brushing up against or playing around the trees and shrubs at our school. A variation from this schedule may occur as a result of inclement weather.
