Our vision is to firmly maintain a school environment that has high expectations for every child and challenges each child not only to surpass all the common core state standards, but also to discover the unique talents and attributions they have to contribute to the world. In order for our vision to be realized, we believe philosophically that every child must be provided first with a strong foun
dation in the academia- specifically Reading, Writing and Mathematics. The scholar's exploration of the academics must be interwoven with higher order thinking processes, including but not limited to problem solving, analytical reasoning, inference, evaluation and creation. Our scholars will practice these skills by engaging in challenging work such as conducting experiments using scientific methodology; exploring cultures and histories using primary documents; engaging in conversations about classical literature; analyzing great works of art; speaking a foreign language; and appreciating musical/theatrical compositions. The educational experience the scholars receive at Peninsula Preparatory Academy will provide them with the academic foundation and confidence necessary to successfully navigate through life's journey as critical thinkers and life-long learners.
