Curriculum
The school’s curriculum focuses on college preparatory and the IB Diploma Programme, plus a broad range of opportunities including:
- Travel, including International
- Music
- Drama
- Art
- Community service
- Analytical and creative writing
- Research papers
The school’s program also permits students to take advantage of courses taught at College of the Redwoods, the local 2-year college, and at Humboldt State University.
Each year there are at least two major dramatic productions, which are produced first locally and then sometimes performed in the countries to which students travel that year.

Famous quotes containing the word curriculum:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
