Will Scientia schools be accredited?
Yes. We will apply for accreditation from NIPSA, the
National Independent Private
School
Association, and WASC, The Western Association of Schools and
Colleges.
Will Scientia
School teachers
be certified?
Scientia teachers will meet all state requirements for
private school teachers. Each teacher must pass a rigorous Scientia
interview and screening process.
Will Scientia schools have small class sizes?
Our class size will be 25 – 30 students. However, since we
will be project based, students will have significantly more
interaction with all teachers and other students than in regular
schools. The student/teacher ratio will be about 25/1.
Why is the school so small?
Our research shows that small high schools (less than 400
students), are a much more effective learning environment.
What will your teachers be like?
Our “top-notch” teachers will be hired for their passion,
communication and leadership skills, creativity, knowledge of
subject and real life entrepreneurial and business, science and math
experience.
Will Scientia have a football team?
Football team no, project teams yes
Will Scientia have other sports?
Absolutely. Each student will be involved in a club sport
or activity that they chose through local gyms and health clubs.
Progress will be tracked and grades issued in compliance with state
guidelines
