Enhancing Academics by Developing the Whole Child
For more than forty years, we have found that students who are taught how to be balanced are far more likely to achieve academic success.
The philosophy of Living Wisdom School, helps students achieve academic and personal success through a balanced development of body, feelings, and will as well as the mind. Mainstream education, with its heavy emphasis on test scores, focuses on training just one of these tools – the intellect – at the expense of the others.
Here are some of the activities that Living Wisdom High School incorporates into its program to develop the whole person, as well as the mind...
A Place for Change Makers
“I came to this school because I saw things that were inspirational and because the people here are very bright and very happy… I built relationships that I will carry for my whole life.” - I.H., alumna and current student at UCSD
"I am a senior now at UC Davis, graduating with honors this June in Genetics and minoring in French… I certainly attribute my love of learning and confidence in myself towards my foundation in Living Wisdom. I was also taught that, as people, we really do have the autonomy to choose our own happiness, and I try to remind myself of this every day.” - H.S., alumna
