School Notes
Frontiers Academy is an independent private school designed to
meet the growing domestic and international demand for
well-educated global citizens. Frontiers Academy provides an
innovative language immersion program and an advanced academic
program.
The Frontiers Academy mission is to provide trilingual fluency
and an intellectually challenging, advanced curriculum in Mandarin,
Spanish, and English integrated within the early childhood,
elementary, and middle school program. It is through this program
that we will educate and inspire our students to become citizens of
the world - cross-cultural leaders, creative problem-solvers, and
team builders.
The integrated curriculum begins in preschool and continues
through the middle school grades. It will foster excellence across
all academic disciplines, not only meeting butexceeding
academic standards of the State of California. In addition to
multiple-language development, students will be guided in the
mastery of foundational skills, knowledge acquisition, critical
thinking, creativity, and independence. Curriculum is designed and
taught with the understanding that each student learns
differently.
The goal of our ECE (Early Childhood Program) is to nurture
children's curiosity and help them begin to develop the social
skills, focus and good work habits in a trilingual environment that
will prepare them for a smooth transition to a bilingual,
trilingual, or monolingual elementary school.Our
integrated trilingual classroom at Frontiers Academy will give your
child a gift that will last their lifetime: a strong foundation for
a love of learning, self-discipline, self-motivation, and
independence. When Frontiers Academy students complete our ECE
program, they are prepared both socially and academically to enter
elementary school.
Our elementary program's instructional philosophy and practices
emphasize a constructivist, student-centered, and inquiry-based
approach that cultivates academic achievement, critical and
creative thinking, and character development through disciplinary
and interdisciplinary teaching and learning. Students actively
engage in structured, in-depth inquiry into unit themes in a
trilingual setting. This provides opportunities for students to
consider multiple perspectives, make connections, and transfer
learning that leads to and reflects a deep understanding of the
units.
Building on the foundational knowledge, skills, and
understandings developed in elementary school, Frontiers Academy
middle school students engage in a rigorous academic program aiming
to develop trilingual and multi-cultural global citizens. Our
instructional focus is grounded in academic disciplines and
interdisciplinary learning.
In addition to Mandarin and English, all students at Frontiers
Academy learn Spanish as a third language starting Preschool.
Beginning Grade 2, students take the Avant STAMP assessments in
both Spanish and Mandarin outperforming national norms in both
languages in all grade levels.
Frontiers Academy teaches mathematics in Mandarin using the
Chinese National Curriculum up to Grade 5. Students perform 1- 2
years above their grade level peers when assessed and matriculated
to other schools.
The goal in Grade 8 is proficient and advanced levels of both
Mandarin and Spanish and attainment of the Global Seal of
Biliteracy.
