Puget Sound Community School was founded on the principle that learning is best fostered by self-motivation, self-regulation, and self-reflection. We believe that people become empowered by being free to pursue the knowledge they want to possess, by learning how to ask significant questions, and by structuring their time and activities as they best see fit. In this way, PSCS promotes the development of critical and creative thinking in students and helps them strengthen their sense of authority over what they study. The central educational purpose of PSCS, and the basis of our curriculum, is to help students learn to use their minds well while becoming thoughtful, sincere, and respectful global citizens.
