Mission
Inspiring lives of purpose through education grounded in a spirit of discovery.[4]
About
At the center of that belief is Liggett's curriculum, which allows students to drive the process of their own academic growth. From pre-k3 through 12th grade, students become active participants in their learning experience. They discover their passions. They uncover questions. They propose answers. And, in doing so, they turn information into understanding. This forward-thinking approach allows students to apply their learning, absorb it and then demonstrate what they have learned, both inside the classroom and out. Our guiding philosophy comprises five core tenets - critical thinking, creativity, teamwork, adaptability and universalism. Beginning in prekindergarten, the curriculum covers three phases of learning and development in the lower, middle and upper schools.
