AIMS
At AIMS, our mission is to reignite the love of learning through exploration and discovery.
AIMS is designated for students for whom the traditional instructional setting is not a good fit. AIMS thrives with success in a smaller setting with less structured curriculum, more hands-on experiences, and more relationship-building time with their teachers and peers.
-
The Makerspace at AIMS will be equipped with a variety of tools and scientific instruments. This includes industrial work surfaces that can be used to explore, test, design, and create. Students will be encouraged to construct their own learning.
-
From the AIMS kitchen garden to the sculpture-filled lawns of the Nelson-Atkins museum, students will regularly venture beyond the four walls of our classrooms.
-
AIMS will partner with local businesses and area groups to design service-learning projects that allow students the opportunity to make a significant positive impact across the multiple communities our district serves.
-
We are able to set forth a accessible path for the students for the following reasons:
- Have a lower student to teacher ration
- Anchor academic concepts in real-world experiences
- Emphasize the importance of relationships
- Value curiosity and wonder in all its fascinating forms
