Overview Paragraph | At Discovery, students are prepared for college and life after high school. Students learn how to reflect upon their own thinking and acquire the skills they need to be successful in the world of tomorrow. At our school, every student discovers and explores his or her potential. In addition to the strong emphasis on academics and preparation for college, Discovery emphasizes the importance of developing family-like bonds, both between the teachers and their students, and between the students themselves. Discovery strives to create a nurturing culture in which students enjoy learning and can be creative while maintaining healthy social bonds and relationships. |
