Discovery School is also uniquely located in downtown Spokane with easy access to parks, theater, concerts, museums, businesses, city issues and other enriching activities.
Community service is built into many curriculum units.
Discovery Third graders contributed ideas about downtown development to the Envision Spokane process currently underway. Students also recently spearheaded a neighborhood clean-up for Earth Day which involved students working side by side with employees of neighboring businesses. Discovery students participated in a paint-over graffiti project near the school as community service. All Discovery students are participating in a Readathon between April 11 and May 11. A readathon caterpillar is wending its way through the whole school, each segment a book read by students.
