Redwood Day’s commitment to service learning and multicultural education also prepares our students to become responsible to themselves, their classmates, and their communities. At early ages, they begin to apply lessons learned in Equity and Inclusion groups to everyday life. Their understanding of key questions, like “Who am I?” “Who is in my family?” “What does my family celebrate?” “How do I identify?” grows every day. In addition, students learn to value multiple perspectives and to understand the value of learning history through first-person voices and experiences.
Our exceptional teachers, who have access to the most cutting-edge professional development, can inspire each child in the dynamic educational setting we curate. They are lifelong learners who use the Bay Area as their classroom. Fifth graders travel overnight to Colma; fourth graders spend two nights visiting elephant seals and studying tidepools in Pescadero. Throughout, students learn how to construct and validate meaning through purposeful reflection, investigation, and interdisciplinary learning, encouraging them to make meaningful connections across the curriculum and between their experiences and academic learning.
LEARNING AT REDWOOD DAY IS A CHANCE TO GROW, CONNECT, AND EXPLORE WITH PURPOSE.
