Sage Vista School

A PROGRESSIVE INDEPENDENT PRIVATE SCHOOL SERVING ELEMENTARY AGE CHILDREN.

SAGE VISTA SCHOOL SERVED 29 STUDENTS, AGES 5-10, IN THREE CLASSROOMS WITH DEDICATED TEACHERS. FORMATIVE AND SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENTS REVEAL SVS STUDENTS TO OUT-PERFORM NON-SVS STUDENTS BY AT LEAST ONE ACADEMIC YEAR IN AREAS OF LANGUAGE ARTS AND MATHEMATICS. OUR SCIENCE SCOPE AND SEQUENCE IS A YEAR AHEAD OF THE RECOMMENDED COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS. OUR STUDENTS ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE AT A FASTER RATE AND SPEND INDEPENDENT TIME IMMERSED IN SCIENTIFIC LEARNING DUE TO PERSONAL PASSION FOR SCIENCE. ADDITIONALLY, SVS HIRED A HEAD OF SCHOOL AS OF THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR. THE CO-FOUNDER OF SVS WAS INVITED TO SPEAK AT THE ANNUAL SOCIAL EMOTIONAL NEED OF THE GIFTED (SENG) CONFERENCE AND GRANTED A SCHOLARSHIP TO ATTEND THE SUMMER SOCIAL EMOTIONAL LEARNING INSTITUTE FOR EDUCATORS OFFERED BY THE GREATER GOOD SCIENCE CENTER AT UC BERKELEY. THE PARENT ASSOCIATION CONTINUED TO DEFINE ITS ROLE IN CREATING A STRONG AND SUPPORTIVE PARENT COMMUNITY INVESTED IN SUPPORTING THE GROWTH AND PROSPERITY OF THE SCHOOL.
