Our Five Pillars serve as the educational philosophy guiding all that we do and all that our students learn. MUSE Virtual has created standards or educational milestones for each grade within each of the Five Pillars.
The Five Pillars are the foundation of our learning platform.
We are dedicated to these Five Pillars, which form the foundation of all MUSE Virtual academics, curriculum and culture.
Teachers at every grade level cover core subjects, including math, science, language arts, social studies, history, etc. Grade level knowledge is based on standards which have been approved by The Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC).
Inspiring students to engage in their passions. MUSE infuses Passion- Based Learning with Core Academics to create learning opportunities that are challenging, individualized and unique. Students are encouraged through their interests and passions to learn at a deep and meaningful level.
Self-efficacy is defined as “my belief in my ability to be successful by accessing my open, resourceful and persistent skill sets.” Research shows that a student’s belief in their ability to succeed directly relates to being successful.
Preparing students to effectively communicate with an ever-evolving world. MUSE uses the Process Communication Model (PCM), a platform to help students and teachers assess, connect, motivate others, understand behavior, communicate effectively and resolve conflict.
Sustainability standards in each grade level are studied and practiced at MUSE Virtual in a tangible way. Students collaborate on solution-oriented projects and attend specialized weekly classes. They explore and examine sustainability from an internal, school, and global perspective.
“When learning is purposeful, creativity blossoms. When creativity blossoms, thinking emanates. When thinking emanates, knowledge is fully lit. When knowledge is lit, the economy flourishes.”
