Winthrop Park School Inc

Wps is an innovative secondary school with an advanced model of education where learning thrives everywhere - in our classroom, through internships, and throughout the local and greater communities. Our teachers are dedicated to creating curriculum programs that deepen learning by fostering student and teacher directed learning, thereby empowering students (and their families), and teachers, to shape their own educational journey and to experience learning as being unbounded, versus one size fits all. We believe that students learn best when they have connections with their community, become empowered learners, and have school opportunities that are unbounded. The successful international hackathon, attended by 150 students from around the globe, is an example of our student designed programming. Our newly developed summer leadership institute is an example of how a student agency is promoted on our campus.
