People are different, with unique aptitudes, talents and interests emerging at an early age. At Fairbanks Country Day school, they are. And they excel. According to annual achievement tests most Fairbanks students are two to four grade levels ahead of their peers in other schools. Computers running software scientifically developed at Fairbanks Country Day track student progress and create individualized tests of mastery, fluency and retention, so teachers and parents are assured that mastery is occurring at every step of the way.
Students receive indivudual attention.
Teachers are freed to work with students individually when they have questions or difficulties, which enables students to progress as fast as they can. The educational program is based on a concept called Mastery Learning, which requires that students master material before moving on.
