Develop a passion for life-long learning

Kagan Structures are instructional strategies designed to promote cooperation and communication in the classroom, boost students' confidence and improve student engagement. At La Academia it is our mission to inspire children to become confident and independent learners this is possible when students take ownership of their learning. Kagan structures enable students to work together and collaborate while building classroom community and team building.

At La Academia, we believe educating children requires working with the whole child. In partnership with their families we ensure students are healthy and safe physically, joyful internally, engaged creatively, supported socially and emotionally, and challenged academically. Our community is responsive and adaptive to meet the ever-changing needs of our students, parents, teachers, and staff.  La Academia models for our students their capacity to be life-long learners and innovators through risk taking, ownership of their actions, and embracing challenges to achieve their goals and social stewardship.
