EL Education provides a powerful, coherent framework for engaging learning with a focus on rigorous student outcomes in academics and character. Students experience expeditions (real-world, in-depth studies both inside and outside the classroom), share their learning and achievements with authentic audiences through public exhibitions, and belong to a Crew (EL’s advisory vehicle for fostering relationships and the habits of scholarship that every student needs to be successful.)
BASE focuses on the EL Education three dimensions of Student Achievement:
Mastery of Knowledge & Skills - through our rigorous curriculum 6 - 12 and our PLTW Pathways for ALL students. Through expeditions and hands-on learning experiences our students have opportunities to apply their learning. Critical thinking and effective communication through writing, speaking and presenting are key elements at BASE.
Character - Not only through CREW, but throughout our classes students develop mindsets and skills to become learners, treat people ethically, and contribute to a better world.
High Quality Student Work - BASE students create complex work in classes, demonstrate craftsmanship, and create unique, authentic work - not only work for themselves but for the broader-base community.
