The Richland School of Academic Arts
Our Philosophy:
The educational philosophy of The Richland School of Academic Arts is best summarized by a simple concept … “Students learn best when they are consistently challenged to develop and use higher order thinking and creativity skills through inquiry based projects.” We believe that a curriculum focused on mastery in all core content areas, but designed to challenge students to develop additional skills related to leadership, teamwork, self discipline, inquiry, critical thinking, problem solving, reflection, collaboration, ethics and work habits is needed if students are to become true lifelong learners. We believe that not only must students learn these skills; they must apply these skills and knowledge at high levels if they are to be perceived as future community leaders.
