Parents wondering why they should choose SCVi Charter School in Santa Clarita for their children’s education can learn more about the SCVi/iLEAD curriculum and culture.

As a tuition free public TK-12 charter school in Santa Clarita, SCVi/iLEAD officials noted that parents turn to their unique learning environment for four primary reasons:

• Because you’re looking for something different;
• Because you value a small school community that offers personalized learning;
• Because you want your children to be creative problem-solvers who pursue their passions; and
• Because you want them to be intellectual entrepreneurs and be successful, happy global citizens. 

SCVi has a special focus on the social, emotional and cognitive development of the “whole child,” with an added emphasis on project-based learning (PBL), according to officials. 

“Our revolutionary model embeds social-emotional learning (SEL) concepts into everything we teach, helping our students learn the valuable collaboration, teamwork and problem-solving skills our global economy will demand from them,” officials said.

The PBL and SEL focus of the charter school in Santa Clarita is designed to help learners cultivate confidence, leadership and self-reflection.

“We’re a different kind of school, and we’re proud of the rigorous, challenging and authentic educational program we’ve intentionally created here,” officials said, noting that SCVi/iLEAD actively engages learners in a student-centered environment “brimming with creative expression.”

Officials compared the school’s environment to campuses of tech incubators and innovators, including Google, Facebook, Zappos and Pixar, and facilitators actively embrace the “Maker Movement.”

“We are deeply entrenched in the Maker Movement, a philosophy borne of the tech industry that focuses on building, doing and creating over mere consumption,” officials said. “We stress that taking action — essentially, being a maker — enhances our kids’ learning experiences by drawing upon their problem-solving skills and imagination and transforming them from passive users to active creators.”

In addition, SCVi/iLEAD strives to empower learners to “become conscientious, compassionate and responsible citizens of the world.” As a result, learners “tackle deeply engaging projects about real-world issues that require critical thought, sustained inquiry and synthesis which culminate in regular presentations of learning.”
