Project '79 Philosophy

Project ‘79:

Project ‘79 is a college-preparatory program designed to work alongside a diverse community of students that thrive in an environment which:

• prioritizes relational learning with teachers and peers 

• maximizes class time to enhance learning

• encourages students to take ownership of their academic progress

Project ‘79 combines a strong academic program, with an equally strong humanistic approach, in a setting where learning strengths can be identified and empowered. As students are supported to explore those strengths, they work to better understand themselves as learners and as people, which provides opportunities to reach their fullest potential. 

Recommendations for Project ‘79 come from counselors, teachers, parents, administrators, as well as students themselves; enrollment is entirely voluntary.
