Upcoming 2025 Dates: April 11
Our Essential Questions of Sustainability course is part of what makes SEEQS unique!

Participants will leave with a toolkit of materials that can support the implementation of similar classes in different contexts.

“I loved the blend of hearing from students, visiting classrooms and experiencing a SEEQS learning experience. The framing from students at the beginning was powerful and the entire experience modeled what learning looks like at SEEQS, artfully and intentionally designed. Thank you!”
-
"If your school is looking for a way to assess for student learning, SEEQS will be a fantastic place to observe and learn a streamlined portfolio defense process. Mahalo, SEEQS for your transparent sharing."

“Attending the EQS Deep Dive Workshop at SEEQS was an incredibly valuable experience. Watching the students dive into their projects and seeing how the EQS block is actually run was amazing. I got to ask students questions and hear directly from them about what they were working on, which really showed me how engaged they were. What made the experience even better was learning about the different resources SEEQS uses and knowing I’d be able to use them in my own classroom. I left feeling inspired and ready to bring more of those same hands-on, inquiry-based approaches to my students."

Read More About Our EQS Model!
SEEQS’s EQS course model has been added to The Innovative Models Exchange by Transcend Education.
If you are interested in an in-depth look at how we design EQS courses, head over to the exchange to browse through our resources and learn about how you can implement similar structures in your school or classroom.
Student-Led Tours
A student-led tour is the perfect place for educators or community partners* to start to learn about our school - our model, students, classes, and more. Two student ambassadors, supported by a SEEQS adult host, will give you a tour and orient you to the SEEQS mission, vision, and model. Tours can be arranged most days and at most times during the school day (M/T/Th/F 8:30-3:30, W 9:30-3:00); tours during the EQS course are most common (approximately 2:00 PM start time M, T, Th, F).
**Note that these tours are not for prospective families. Families interested in potential enrollment at SEEQS are invited to Open House Info Sessions hosted 10-12 times per year, both on campus and online!
Custom Professional Development
For educators and teams hoping to dive deeper into specific parts of SEEQS’s model, we offer partial- or full-day professional development (at SEEQS or at your site) tailored to each group or school’s needs. Explore an example agenda and hear what previous visitors have had to say:
-
"A great opportunity to observe a very unique school with clear vision and experience”

“Mahalo, mahalo, mahalo! This session was very affirming as well as helpful! I love when I go to a PD and leave with next steps for my own class!"
-
"Amazing support from staff members"
