September School

read moreStudents learn what they need to succeed academically. We explore learning styles and offer accommodations to any student who finds they benefit from them. Students with learning differences all learn together. We see each student as a holistic individual and value social-emotional growth AND academic progress. Teenagers are developing important life skills such as self-advocacy, conflict resolution, stress-management, and empathy. Classes in human development, mindfulness, group dynamics, and yoga alongside math, science, English, and social studies develop well rounded individuals.

While other high schools in Boulder focus exclusively on academics, September School values social and emotional learning in addition to traditional academic growth. When students are empowered to collaborate, support, and understand themselves and the diversity around them, there is an inherent desire to want to learn.

Our programs help teens address social and emotional learning as much as academic growth. We're about whole-person learning that inspires teenagers to engage and be themselves on the path of education. Our program is here for teens of all backgrounds who are dealing with a variety of issues. We serve teenagers in grades 9-12 who exhibit aptitude, learning disabilities, boredom, frustration, ADHD, anxiety, depression, or drug abuse.
