Learning is a process that involves both individual achievement and cooperative learning with peers. This format operates on the premise that students may progress rapidly ahead of traditional grade-level expectations in some areas while needing more time in others. We are also sensitive to the different ways children can learn the same material. We believe this overall approach best meets a changing world where countries and cultures increasingly interact, where familiarity with science and math is vital, and where working cooperatively in groups and independently on individual initiative are important.
