- offer choice to deepen and extend knowledge.
- build upon student interest.
- balance freedom with responsibility.
- provide moments for consistent self-reflection and feedback.
- teach through meaningful work.
To accomplish this, we offer 3 challenging academic paths (Core, IB, XP) and there is no one-size-fits-all journey. Throughout their time at Beacon Academy, every student maps their own plan with guidance from their advisors and teachers.
