Our Philosophy - Personalized Learning

The Personalized Learning approach to education has evolved over the past decade through the growing public charter school movement in California, and incorporates many of the latest educational research results as to how children learn successfully. Personalized Learning is a 21st century, "on the leading edge" approach to public education that honors and recognizes the unique gifts, skills, passions, and attributes of each child. Personalized Learning is dedicated to developing individualized learning programs for each child with the intent to engage each child in the learning process in the most productive and meaningful way to optimize each child's learning potential and success.

Sierra Charter School places a strong emphasis on parental involvement, more one-on-one teacher and student interaction, attention to differences in learning styles, English-Language Arts and Math tutorial, Math and Science labs, Math and Writing workshops, technology access, varied learning environments, teacher and parent collaboration, and choices in curriculum programs. No other educational model offered in today's public education system has integrated these proven educational research results in such an in-depth and comprehensive manner to serve the diverse needs of today's public education students.
