Students apply tools and techniques gleaned from core subjects to formulate and solve problems.

Students think critically, analytically, and creatively. They know how to find, evaluate, and synthesize information to construct arguments. They can design their own solutions to complex problems.

Collaboration

Students cooperate to identify and create solutions to academic, social, vocational, and personal challenges.

Collaborative students work well in teams. They communicate and understand multiple points of views and they know how to cooperate to achieve shared goals.

Self-directed Learning

Students develop and ability to direct their own learning. They set goals, monitor their own progress, and reflect on their own strengths and areas for improvement. They learn to see setbacks as opportunities for feedback and growth. Students who learn through self-direction are more adaptive than their peers.

An "Academic Mindset"

Students with an academic mindset have a strong belief in themselves. They trust their own abilities and believe their hard work will pay off, so they persist to overcome obstacles. They also learn from and support each other. They see the relevance of their schoolwork to the real world and their own future success.
