The
Importance of Mythology/Psychology in Individualized Education
has long been neglected in Public Education. The argument that
to remain secular -no mythology is examined is fallacious. Mythology
of the world, and specifically the mythology
of the individual is essential to wholistic Education.
The exploration of a child's "roots", help her/him discover
their
uniqueness in the diversity of human culture. At the same time
a respect for the culture of others and the common threads which
unite us, are also discovered. Students who enroll for the entire
curriculum will be asked to do work in Mythology/Psychology. Reports
on self and family members through history are a focus.
Students
will choose their own reading material in literature, provided
it is challenging, and all students will move at their own pace
in all subjects. Self correcting math materials will be offered.
In
Science and History, Students are encouraged to study topics which
have captured their wonder. They move at their own pace in Math
and English, and movement in some form as well as the arts are
required. Students 10 and up are asked to find activities where
they are sharing their gifts with others, and students in High
School are required to do some form of community service. Every
effort will be made to create an interdisciplinary curriculum
based on the students interest.
