Welcome to our Global Microschool, a learning environment for students in grades 9-12 in Liberty Public Schools. Learners in EDGE engage in project-based learning that incorporates multiple subject areas together and focuses on developing skills to mastery.
What makes EDGE a revolutionary way to do high school?
- EDGE is rooted in humanitarian causes. If you want to positively impact humanity, EDGE can give you the knowledge and skills to make it happen.
- Real-world problems are the center of learning. Rather than subjects being separated by class periods, learning from each subject area is woven together to allow learners to understand how math, science, social studies, English, etc. apply to real-world problems.
- Learning at EDGE is incredibly student-driven. Students take a large role in setting goals, choosing and designing learning projects, planning their day, and choosing how to show evidence of learning. Highly qualified teachers provide the expertise and accountability to guide learning and keep students on track.
- EDGE gives learners opportunities to explore and connect internationally. Making these opportunities accessible to learners from all backgrounds is part of our mission.
