OUR PROGRAM

STRATEGIC AREA 1: Strengthening Our Program

Tenacre will build new opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and critical thinking by developing:

• An enhanced technology and STEM curriculum that provides students with the motivation, skills, and tools to nurture their curiosity and inquisitiveness

• An integrated social-emotional learning and wellness program that promotes students’ self-awareness, resilience, and confidence, and deepens the connections between home and school

• A reinvigorated academic support and enrichment structure that centralizes resources and increases opportunities for one-on-one instruction and collaboration amongst support staff to meet the needs of individual students

• Expanded ancillary programming, including a wider variety of enriching afterschool activities that will both contribute to our students’ development and introduce new families to the school

STRATEGIC AREA 2:

Creating Flexible Spaces

To support Tenacre’s evolving program needs, we will reimagine current spaces and create new spaces for multipurpose use. Plans on the drawing board include:

• A new maker space and design center that gives us the spaces and tools we need for iterative, interdisciplinary, critical-thinking and design-oriented projects

• A core learning hub that centralizes Tenacre’s support and enrichment resources to equip students with the skills they need to develop as confident learners

• New administrative and gathering spaces that foster admissions and advancement opportunities while also creating additional room for student instruction

• Classroom and outdoor updates that optimize support for the critical thinking and collaborative experiences that underpin Tenacre’s program

• Accessibility upgrades to ensure that the Tenacre experience can be enjoyed by all students
