A Strong Academic Foundation

​​

ReThink provides standards-aligned instruction in English Language Arts, mathematics, science, and social studies while giving teachers the flexibility to meet students at their current skill level. Small classes allow teachers to provide individual attention without lowering meaningful academic expectations.

​

Learning Through Inquiry

Students learn through questions, investigation, discussion, research, experimentation, problem-solving, and hands-on experiences. Inquiry-based learning helps students understand not only what they are learning, but why it matters.

​

Individualized Support

Students may benefit from additional time, clear directions, visual supports, structured routines, movement opportunities, multisensory instruction, and individualized academic support. These strategies are integrated into the learning environment while helping students develop greater independence.

Curriculum Framework:

Core Subjects

We offer a full curriculum in English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies that aligns with state standards and college readiness benchmarks. Every subject is adapted to fit the needs, interests, and pace of each learner, without compromising academic integrity.

 Flexibility

We meet each student with empathy and adaptability. Whether a student needs extra time on assignments, breaks throughout the day, or multisensory learning strategies, we’re equipped to offer accommodations that make learning both accessible and meaningful.

College Credit at ASU

Through our partnership with Arizona State University, high school students can earn real college credit before they graduate. This opportunity not only builds academic confidence—it opens doors to higher education and career paths many families once thought were out of reach.

Cybersecurity Certificate

High school students can explore cybersecurity, technology, and digital skills through career-connected learning experiences designed to build practical skills and introduce potential career pathways.

Speech Pathology Support

Our students benefit from on-campus speech-language pathology services that support communication, social interaction, and self-expression. These services are integrated into the school day, making support accessible without disrupting learning.

Student Life​​

Daily Routine
Structure is key to a successful school day. Our students follow a predictable daily schedule that includes academic blocks, breaks for movement and meals, and time for peer connection. We balance consistency with enough flexibility to support individual needs.
Class Size & Social Dynamics
With a maximum of 8 students per class, our community is tight-knit and relational. Students develop meaningful peer connections and benefit from social coaching embedded throughout the day. We foster an inclusive, respectful environment where every student can safely be themselves.
Celebrating Student Wins
From mastering a new math concept to speaking up in class for the first time, we celebrate the small and large wins. Our team recognizes effort, growth, and courage—not just grades—because we know those are the true indicators of success.
Our Teachers
Our educators are more than just subject-matter experts—they’re compassionate guides trained to support neurodivergent learners. Every teacher brings patience, experience, and deep respect for each student’s unique journey.
Building Belonging
We intentionally create spaces of belonging through rituals, group activities, and identity-affirming practices. Our students don’t just attend school—they feel like they’re part of a community that sees, hears, and values them.
