Congratulations, seniors! Your teachers had a lot of fun surprising you with yard signs and can't wait to celebrate with you in person. Congrats! You did it!!
The Howard Gardner School
The Howard Gardner School is a small, independent, educationally-progressive school serving grades 6-12. At HGS, we strive to approach learning from all angles.
This means integrating academic subjects, life experiences, and community participation. This approach allows each student to find their strengths and claim ownership over their education. Whether a student is looking for an alternative high school or middle school, an educational environment where their non-traditional learning style will be understood and appreciated, or a safe place with a nurturing and caring community, we can and will work with each student as the individual that they are.

Last year, six of our seniors embarked on an oral history project with local Vietnam Veterans as part of their "America in the 1960's" history class. They researched the war, came up with questions, interviewed the veterans (and recorded/edited the videos!), transcribed their experiences, and made a website from scratch. It launched at last year's Arts & Sciences Festival, but we're sharing it now (in the spirit of our upcoming Virtual Arts & Sciences Festival). A job very well done. Enjoy!
