At The Pinnacle School, we focus on creating a caring community that supports students’ academic and social-emotional development. At the heart of our program is an emphasis on building resilience, self-esteem and an enthusiasm for learning. We accomplish this by identifying students’ strengths, creating opportunities for success, and building on these successes daily. Through these experiences, s

tudents begin to gain confidence, value their academic success and flourish. Our approach is highly individualized and customized to each student’s unique learning profile. We use a collaborative approach that includes the student as an insightful member of his or her team. By doing so, they learn the important role they have in their own development, become effective self-advocates and reach their true potential.

Look what our students made! The mural is inspired by California Fine Artist, Painter, and Creative Director who goes by the name Thank You X . He was first recognized for the street graffiti he did as a tribute to Andy Warhol, and has expanded both his fine art and street art tremendously. He even did a mural at the Snapchat Headquarters office in Santa Monica, CA. This mural is inspired by his geometric style graffiti and murals where two sides of a cube are designed and one side is left blank. Lower, Middle, and High School students were given a cube side to design with complete artistic freedom. Some students chose to design their side digitally, some with paint, and some with your typical colored pencils and paper. Once all the sides were complete, our amazing art teacher Ms. Fergus, assembled them together to create the mural to represent that of the artist!
