The City School

curriculum

everything we do is intentional

We believe that a task as formidable as passing on the world’s accumulated knowledge, skills and values to the next generation requires both skilled educators, as well as an environment to support this passage. An environment has a powerful influence on a students thinking, learning, and well-being. Our environment is intentional. It is intrinsically intertwined with the curriculum, providing a back drop for all learning, one that values opportunities for inquiry, encourages curiosity, and provides provocations for further investigations. Ateliers strategically placed throughout the school offer the students the opportunity to explore through inquiry the curricular concepts relevant to the different disciplines. Cognitive, observational, communication, and social skills, critical thinking, visual and auditory exercise – all these come into play, as the children make use of all the languages at their disposal to stimulate this exciting new awareness that mathematics, physics, biology, art, music and every other subject they are studying are all interrelated. This is a curriculum that brings up, brings out, and brings forth. And, if you happen to be here at one of those magic moments when a child’s cognitive evolution has taken a giant leap forward, you might just see Math pirouetting to Mozart, Art whirling with Astronomy, Light  dancing with Sound, Physics partying with Proust, and a roomful of wide-eyed children from a diversity of countries and cultures playing with Robotics like they were the greatest toys they’ve ever seen!
