PictureOne of the first community gatherings of Skyview families - Thumb Butte Park, 1995
     Founded in 1996 in Prescott, Arizona, Skyview School was one of the first charter schools in the state. We began as a group of parents seeking a learning environment exemplified by an active, relevant, and inspiring methodology of teaching.  After two years of research and discussion, an educational program was developed based on the traditional values of respect and responsibility and characterized by a cognitive, research-supported pedagogy. 
     Using the multiple intelligences to inform the curriculum and further our students' understanding, the founders blended inquiry, project-based learning, state standards, gifted education, and authentic assessment into a unique framework.

A School of Choice

Picture
     As a publicly funded charter school, Skyview welcomes all families, nurturing a sense of community.  Students at Skyview experience hands-on learning, enabling them to engage in what they are studying by connecting academics to the real world.  Our active pedagogy encourages students to participate as problem-solvers, preparing their future involvement in the local community.  These methodologies are highly successful, as evidenced by many years of recognition by the Arizona Department of Education.
     Equally as important as academics is the enrichment of a child's social and emotional development and Skyview nurtures these through an emphasis on respect and responsibility.  Our gifted model of education requires students to set goals for themselves and, with guidance and support, they become self-directed learners and accountable members of our community. 
     As a school of choice, families select Skyview because they connect to the mission of the school.  Skyview attracts students who love to learn and families who value learning.  Our rigorous curriculum requires students to commit a substantial amount of time to their studies.  Regular problem-solving opportunities, investigations, and high-order thinking activities require a significant level of responsibility and students are expected to arrive each day prepared for learning.
