Instruction

The CES Mentor Schools approach teaching and learning with the assumption that all students can learn to use their minds well with the help of teachers who facilitate student inquiry and practice of skills and an individualized curriculum that emphasizes depth over breadth, seeing from multiple perspectives, and applying learning to new situations. Key to this approach is the development of professional learning communities in which teachers share practices and build upon one another's knowledge and skills.
