Charlotte Lab School

Description

• Teaching and learning for the next generation. Charlotte Lab School is a NC tuition-free public charter school opening in the Uptown area in the fall of 2015. We will open with 280 students in grades k-4, expanding to serve 540 students in grades k-8. Transportation, lunch and afterschool programming will be available. Our mission is to redesign the elementary school experience to better prepare students for success in college and careers through community partnerships; our school will become a model for innovative practices in teaching and leadership. We believe in: - Authentic learning: Students learn best through meaningful, hands-on learning experiences that resemble the real world; - Individualization and Personalization: Students learn better when they are known by their teachers and when their school meets them where they are, enabling them to learn in different ways and at different paces; - Global Awareness and Bilingualism: Students must learn skills that will enable them to communicate and collaborate with diverse groups of people; - Metacognitive Skill Development: Students need to understand themselves as learners in order to adapt in todays rapidly changing world; and - Innovation: Students needs must drive school improvement. Our approach maximizes a small, nurturing environment where students will have the opportunity to participate in: - Solving real-world problems, alongside experts, through Challenge Based Learning; - Getting to know each other and themselves through our Advisory Program; - Using the City and greenspaces as their expanded classroom through our Community Partnerships; - Learning a second language Mandarin or Spanish; and - Exploring their interests and learning new skills through our Enrichment Programs.
