We combine elements of Socratic learning, hands-on experiential projects, and interactive technology, creating a lively learning environment that feels more like an adventure than school.

At Apogee, we have mixed-aged classrooms with a self-paced learning design as opposed to grade-levels. Our projects seek to instill real-world skills and culminate in a public exhibition of learning as opposed to test scores and report cards. In all areas of Apogee life, our learners are empowered to be in the driver’s seat of their education.

·       Guide our learners in goal setting.

·       Be a role model and example in both public and private life.
