The School House Aec

A Community of Learners. The School House and the new American Emergent Curriculum (AEC) a 501(c)(3) has a simple mission — to connect what we know works in education with what we love about traditional American schools. Instead of relying on just one pedagogy or one set of standards, The School House thoughtfully combines the most effective ways of learning—an academic Montessori Foundation, Project-based Learning, Critical Thinking & Group Dialogue and Art & Design Studio (Reggio-Emilia)— with the things we all grew up with and loved in public school —access to great sports programs, performing arts, civics and a lot of economic diversity. The result is a highly integrated curriculum serving a community of learners who thrive not just academically but emotionally, socially and physically in the most crucial time of their young lives, 3-13 years old.
