What is a Micro School?
Micro schools are intentionally small learning communities. They are opening everywhere and the model of a micro school is evolving; most are characterized with common traits:
- A small mixed-age student population,
- An innovative, customized curriculum,
- Place-based and experiential learning,
- The use of cutting-edge technology, and
- An emphasis on mastering or understanding curricula and material.
Featured Micro Schools:
MYSA School is a modern day version of a one room schoolhouse for students in grades K-12. Each student has a customized learning plan and uniquely tailored program of study through weekly assigned 'menus'. Similar to Montessori, students are not separated strictly by age; they work based on their aptitudes, interests and are challenged to work beyond 'grade level'.
Templeton Academy is an accredited rigorous high school utilizing project-based learning for instruction AND the city as the classroom. Templeton's core advisory program is driven by Project Wayfinder curriculum and ensures students graduate with skills needed to be purposeful life-long learners.
Longview School is a non-profit private school located in the Village of Brewster, New York. Longview’s small, personalized environment supports both academic learning and social development. Beyond classes, students help run the school through participation in the school legislative body—school meeting—and the school court system—judicial committee.
