Our Students will become champions in the fight for global sustainability!

Connecting Values

The guiding theme of our project rests on the concepts of sustainability, which the United Nations defines as “the process of improving the quality of human life while living within the carrying capacity of supporting eco-systems.”

With this as our “North Star,” we strive to create programs and learning spaces where students can grow and gain a thirst for knowledge, an innate commitment to honesty, genuine respect for the rights, well being, and dignity of others, and an intense interest to explore the wonders of our world.

We combine all of this with a common love for our families, our city, and our world.

Sustainable cities begin with education

Access is the key.  The argument here is that educational opportunity can lead to radical change in the life of a child, a family, a community, a city, and our world. Childhood should have choices. Childhood should be celebrated.
