Our Framework
Setting high expectations for every student starts with setting high expectations for every Imagine team member. Our proprietary Academic Excellence Framework serves as the roadmap for all Imagine Schools, guiding every level of our organization. It details the strategies for excellence that unite our schools, providing clear expectations, measurable outcomes, and effective assessment tools to achieve our vision, mission, and goals.
We Believe
We believe that students of all races, incomes, and life challenges deserve the best from us. We love each student uniquely and individually. Most importantly, we believe that every student can succeed. Parents come to Imagine Schools to find a better alternative. They seek personalized education that will build upon each child’s strengths and address areas of weakness. At Imagine Schools, we believe that the level at which a student starts academically does not dictate what he or she ultimately can achieve.
