Student-centric Approach

by

Student-centric

Student-centric is the idea that we look at different approaches when teaching students. As we went back to the drawing board to figure out how to create a learning environment that is both rigorous and engaging, we chose to do a virtual high school with REAL teachers teaching and LIVE support and encouragement.

We wanted our student’s high school experience to have a direct impact on their life after high school.

As a school and organization how could we best prepare our students for WHAT COMES NEXT!

Educate with knowledge
Administer rigorous curriculum  
Provide our students with individual paths to graduation
Empower with character
Encourage community involvement
Help students learn to take responsibility for their actions
Equipping for real life

Choosing a Mascot

by

Why are we the Desert View High School Phoenixes? A Phoenix is a creature that stands for hope, renewal, and rebirth. A Phoenix is a pioneering spirit that is a born leader. Focusing on goals and looking at adversity as opportunities for growth.

Our students, or Phoenixes, are pioneering a new way to do school. Our group of Phoenixes, known as an Odyssey, are going to pave the way for a more student-centric approach to education.

What do we mean by student-centric? Find out next week.

Desert View High School was born.
