Academics

Through their academic studies, Stella Schola students learn to investigate the world beyond their own immediate environment. Students recognize, value, and explore their own and others’ perspective helping them understand that their actions do not happen in isolation but rather have a wider impact on those around them.

Stella Schola students learn to communicate their ideas effectively with diverse audiences and engage in civil discourse through discussions in a variety of situations, both in the classroom and beyond.

A rich and important part of the academics at Stella Schola is a commitment to getting students out of the classroom. This takes place in a variety of ways – sometimes museums and sometimes geological digs, sometimes working on a land surveying site and sometimes sailing on a clipper ship, sometimes visiting a university library and sometimes getting outdoors and learning about nature and the environment.

Through these efforts, our students become prepared to participate in the future of a world that is global and complex.
