The mission of The Speyer Legacy School is to provide an optimal environment where precocious learners may realize their full potential in the company of both exceptional classmates and teachers who share, and will foster, their passion for learning. The pedagogy is designed to meet the needs of precocious children through both an accelerated and enriched curriculum developed in the Hollingworth tradition. Students will find membership in a community of learning that nurtures scholarship as well as social and emotional development. Central to the school’s mission will be the goal of cultivating both intellect and integrity.
Children will enter the Speyer Legacy School with a wide range of interests, strengths, challenges and perspectives. It is our goal that they leave more confident and developed in their individuality. Speyer Legacy School will work to develop and hone their creative and critical thinking skills and instill in each student an enduring love of learning, an ability to engage real-world challenges, and a respect for themselves and the richness and diversity of their own communities.
