At Turning Point School, we strive to address the comprehensive educational needs of the whole, multi-faceted child. Here, the child is the focus, the teacher the facilitator. In an intimate and focused learning environment, students are able to realize their individual potential.
Through a variety of methods and in a diversity of environments, students build upon their individual strengths. They develop skills for sound judgment and learn how to learn, developing, as they go, their own understanding of the world. By making it relevant to them personally, by helping them reflect on who they are and how they, as individual citizens, can apply their knowledge, we release them solidly into the world.
Students emerge from Turning Point School self-assured in the quality of their ideas and actions, confident in their abilities, and well prepared for the path ahead.
