Arbor School Of Arts & Science

Arbor School of Arts and Sciences is a small learning community founded on the premise that education is decisive and enduring to the degree that it supports the development of intellect, character, and creativity. The Arbor School of Arts & Sciences takes as its goals to encourage individual talents so that each may become an imaginative, independent thinker with a strong sense of self-worth; promote learning as an integrated, interdisciplinary process rather than as a series of isolated subjects; provide an environment where responsibility and sensitivity to the group are balanced by respect for the autonomy and integrity of the individual; create a climate of self-discipline, trust, and mutual regard; and help students acquire the tools of inquiry and expression through the study of important ideas, so that each may construct a personally meaningful understanding of the world.
