Each day ends with all students participating in a project group activity within their teams. The project group curriculum heightens the importance of learning by allowing students to use what they learned that day in their academic classes. Students will work on projects solving real-life problems and then present it to their parents and the community in a summative event at the end of each quarter.
The academic focus for the Intermediate School is to expand on the skills of reading, writing and mathematics while adding an increased focus on science and social studies. There is also a strong emphasis on values, learning to think and leadership opportunities.
