We are a group of educators who have come together around a common set of principles about what a school should be for students and families. During the 2019-2020 school closures, our classrooms were expanded into homes of our students. This experience reaffirmed the lasting impression that hands on learning experiences have on students. It reminded us of the importance that social interaction plays in meaningful learning. It renewed our commitment to providing opportunities for students to work together, grow as collaborators, and build a community. The Sycamore Community School was founded from our passion to deliver excellence to our community!
