“We make a difference; we see differences in students within the year. We strive for and achieve individual growth. Discovery creates an environment that provides a safe haven to learn and socialize.” ~ Denise W.
“I’m proud to work at a school that puts the students first. We work hard, not only to improve our student’s academic goals, but also to help them realize their full potential and push beyond their own self-doubt. Many students come in feeling defeated, focussed on their shortcomings, but we help them to see that there are so many ways they can be successful. They just need the right tools.” ~ Sherry F.
“Discovery School is a place where there is such a unique rapport between staff and students. This rapport creates such an incredible sense of community. As a teacher, this makes for a much richer teaching experience and relationship with students. It really does feel like a home, and the students at Discovery are a reflection of this.” ~ Nathan A.
“Teaching at Discovery School means I can make a real difference in the lives of students and their families. I am proud to teach at Discovery School. It is wonderful to watch the growth of students as they move through the school. Finally I can teach to individual needs and immediately address concerns as they arise. I love having the opportunity to have students in my class for more than just one year. It is great to work within such a supportive and caring environment.” ~ Martha P.
“Discovery School is the sort of school that nourishes a teacher’s soul because it allows him or her the kind of significant involvement in a student’s life that can really make a difference. It is energizing for a teacher to watch a student make the kind of gains, small and big, that are possible in a setting like Discovery School.” ~ Anita A.
