NORTHWEST PASSAGE HIGH SCHOOL IS A PROJECT-BASED LEARNING CHARTER SCHOOL SERVING STUDENTS IN GRADES 9-12. THE SCHOOL UTILIZES PROGRESSIVE LEARNING MODELS FOR STUDENTS TO DEVELOP THEIR CRITICAL THINKING AND DECISION MAKING SKILLS. THE CORNER STONE OF OUR SCHOOL IS EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING BASED ON THE TEACHINGS OF JOHN DEWEY. WE BELIEVE STUDENTS LEARN BEST WHEN THEY ARE ALLOWED TO BE INSTRUMENTAL IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROJECTS THEY COMPLETE. HALF THE DAY IS SPENT IN INSTRUCTOR LED THEMATIC COURSES. THE OTHER HALF OF THE DAY STUDENTS MEET IN A STRUCTURED ADVISORY PROGRAM WHERE THEY ARE COACHED TO CREATE MEANING IN THE WORLD THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENT DESIGNED PROJECTS. ALL PROJECTS MUST MEET STATE STANDARDS FOR GRADUATION. UPON COMPLETION OF THEIR PROJECTS, STUDENTS PRESENT AT A COMMUNITY EXPOSITION OF THEIR FINAL PROJECT BEFORE GRADUATION IS A SENIOR TRANSITION PROJECT AND DIGITAL PORTFOLIO.
