Self Development Charter School Celebrates a New Room to Learn

by Self Development Academy October 7, 2011
written by Self Development Academy October 7, 2011

self development charter schoolStarting the 2011-2012 school year for Self Development Charter School (SDCS) was exceptionally stimulating for its students as the school continued its tradition of providing an outstanding education for its students, adding new programs in math, science, technology and language.

The programs were implemented as part of an overall expansion, which included a new science and technology building resting on the edge of a beautiful courtyard surrounded by flowers and two new classrooms. The extra room provides space for science labs. In addition, it is wired with laptops, laboratory tables and Smart Boards for a cutting-edge learning experience.

Because of this extra space, the school is fostering new programs, which will focus specifically on aeronautics, architecture, drafting, engineering and robotics. Future plans to include exposure to digital video and biotechnology are in process to start in the coming years.

Part of the learning experience SDCS is offering is language classes in Spanish, Latin and Mandarin Chinese. The school has partnered with Middlebury College to offer students experience in developing language skills.

The Latin study will enable students to be prepared to enter university programs in science and law, as well as teach them about the root of the English Language. These classes are part of an online program, but are supported by SDCS teachers, who aid students in uploads, as well as help them with meeting deadlines and time management.

Some of the extra space is being used to meet the unique needs of middle school students, sixth through eighth grade, by providing rooms to allow students to move between classes. “The ultimate goal,” stated Principal Majeed, “is for students to be prepared to enter high school and the university better prepared for the demanding and competitive world they will surely be facing as they become young adults. This is coupled with a small group environment limiting the social pressures this age group often experiences in larger schools.”

One might think this setting is only for the high-achieving learner, but the program has been set up with levels in many classes. This allows for students to be placed according to the level they have currently reached and allows them to advance as they are ready.

“The ultimate goal of the school is to meet each learner at their ability level and help them achieve the highest level they are capable of,” Principal Majeed stated. “Every student deserves to feel success. When this feeling is fostered, students become natural achievers, developing a passion for learning they will carry with them their whole life.”
