Viva Learning Community

Viva is a learning center that supports families with their scholars’ learning. The learning mentors at Viva work very closely with families to help achieve the goals that each family sets for their scholars. From the recommended core knowledge for each grade level, learning mentors introduce selected concepts in dynamic and engaging blocks of instructions. As we are a constructivist educational program, wherever it is helpful, learning mentors seek to use activities, games, manipulatives, labs, and projects to reinforce such concepts. Viva learning mentors also engage in Spanish interactive conversation, so that scholars can build Spanish conversational skills. Viva arranges multiple annual performance assemblies and emphasizes social justice, both of which help deliver a rich and well-rounded experience in which scholars are given an active role to play in their learning and in their community. There are 7 on-campus courses of study, namely Mathematics, English, Spanish, Science, Social studies, Visual Arts, Performing Arts.
