Centennial, a School for Expeditionary Learning, is a fully credentialed EL Education school. [hyperlink 'fully credentialed EL Education school' with https://eleducation.org/news-and-events/press-releases/el-education-annual-credentialed-schools-announcement-2023/] The EL Education model (formerly known as 'Expeditionary Learning') engages students through high-level tasks and active roles in the classroom, nurturing critical thinking, inquiry and real-life problem solving. Our teachers foster students' growth in our habits of learning to support students in their social and emotional development, a spirit of "crew, not passengers," and trust in and out of the classroom. Our literacy curriculum engages students in projects, connecting them to real-world audiences and empowering them to care and contribute to the world around them. Learn more about our work on our website and by reading this article and watching the accompanying video.
