Learning that Builds Confidence
Small classes
Manageable classes ensure teachers know every student and can respond to their unique needs and interests.
Reading & Math Support
We build in extra opportunities to support critical reading and math skills–ensuring students have a strong foundation.
Speak, Present, Lead
Every student learns who they are and how to use their voice in their advisory circle, in student-led clubs, and in class presentations.
Project-Based Learning
We say no to memorization and yes to creative class projects that encourage collaboration and critical thinking.
Not What, But How
We don't just teach students what to learn. We teach them HOW to learn–setting them up for success in high school, college, and beyond.
Year-Round Growth
Learning from August to June empowers students to grow faster, reach further, and graduate from high school on time.
One School from Middle School to Graduation
Your child doesn't have to start over every few years. At Kairos, students can stay in the same supportive community from 5th grade through 12th grade – building lasting relationships, long-term confidence, and academic excellence.
