“Transformational. So much of school for students is about carrots and sticks, but the Wayfinder curriculum underscores the Why. It is a powerful counterbalancing force and breath of fresh air for students to have the time and space in school to figure out who they are and what they care about.”

CULTIVATE A CULTURE OF PURPOSE + BELONGING
