What Makes Bitney Prep different?
As a Big Picture Learning School, Bitney fosters these qualities in our students:
– Leadership
– Willingness to take risks
– Initiative
– Sense of social responsibility
– Commitment to service
– Special talents and abilities
College admissions officers tend to favor applicants who demonstrate these traits ~ it’s not just grades
and SAT scores, although Bitney students thrive academically as well.
Bitney Prep is committed to developing well-rounded, thriving, and engaged students who are prepared for college and beyond.
- We believe strongly that education in the 21st century should be designed around the new three R’s; Rigor, Relevance, and Relationships.
- With collaborative, experiential, and traditional methods, Bitney imbues our students with profound curiosity, a love of learning, and a clear sense of self direction.
- At Bitney, we aim high academically. Teachers are expected to meet or exceed the California State Educational Standards for each discipline. Teachers are encouraged to do so in interesting unique, collaborative, and diversified ways; and by as much as possible; rolling up their sleeves with the students and “doing.”
