21ST CENTURY LEARNING

Knox has a unique learning system, where we not only say we do big things- we actually do them! It is a place where a student comes to build skills for the 21st century. It is a place where a student isn’t tested against a set of generalized standards, but proves every day to be competent. The goal of Knox Academy is to create 21st century creative problem solvers. They dream big and we say "yes!"

CREATIVITY & CONFIDENCE

Instead of sitting at a desk, our youth should be creating. It is our most basic characteristic as humans to put our hands on our world and to innovate. When a student uses projects to access their world, real, deep, lasting, meaningful learning happens. We agree with the motto of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology: Head and Hand. One without the other will limit our potential.

COLLABORATION & COMMUNITY

We learn from others. Knox Academy of Making focuses on collaboration instead of competition to build a safe and rich learning environment where unique perspectives and gifts are seen as assets to the team. Our community is important both to support our learning, but also we look for ways to serve and build our community, as well.

Consulting

Calling leaders of education innovation! Using my experience building Knox Academy, I can help you develop your program to not only shorten your learning curve, but also to thrive. I have consulted with multiple programs to organize the business side of their program, get funding, train and lead their teachers and staff, marketing, parent registrations and relations, bookkeeping, as well as develop the logistics of their program or curricula for their students, and other needs to develop their own schools. 

Homeschool Support Course

Our 8 week course will take you from feeling overwhelmed and frustrated with your home education to feeling closer as a family and confident in your child's progress without home education consuming all your time and energy.
