Our Courses
At Northridge Academy, our middle and high-school programs go beyond just “covering content.”
Each course is designed around our KSA framework, Knowledge, Skills & Attributes, so students don’t just learn what, they learn how and who they are becoming.
Knowledge
Deep subject mastery through integrated and engaging methods.
Skills
Collaboration, creativity, critical thinking: the tools for modern learning and life.
Attributes
Resilience, self-direction, character: the qualities our students carry into tomorrow.
Lessons with staying power
Students need strong opportunities to develop and reinforce life-long skills. All courses give students just that, focusing on a newly designed trifecta of mastery opportunities:
-
Knowledge -- to gain subject mastery with integrated learning methods.
-
Modern Skills -- to hone skills in areas of collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking.
-
Character Attributes -- to become more self-driven, resilient, and successful.
These innovations are known as "Knowledge, Skills, and Attributes", or "KSA" for short.
