About Us

Currently, Kairos Public Schools comprises four unique academies. The programs are currently spread across separate campuses and an additional facility or location will be added for the high school program. Each program acts as a “school within a school,” deploying its own type of innovative instructional delivery system. A description of each of the four academies follows:

 

1.     Kairos Public School’s Foundations Academy is a classroom-based TK-5th grade program of students willing to meet the challenges of a rigorous, integrated academic curriculum. The program offers moderate class sizes and a hands-on approach to learning, including design thinking, instructional technology, field experiences, community service, parent participation and a sports program. Students also take an active role in creating projects and reflecting on their own learning.

 

2.     Kairos Public School’s Leadership Academy is a classroom-based 6th-8th grade program composed of students willing to meet the challenges of rigorous, integrated academic curriculum with a focus on civic engagement and developing leadership skills. The program offers moderate class sizes and a hands-on approach to learning, including design thinking, instructional technology, field experiences, community service, parent participation and a sports program. Students also take an active role in creating projects and reflecting on their own learning.

 

3.     The Kairos Public School’s Innovative Students Pathway (“KISP”). Serving grades K-8, KISP is a nonclassroom-based program that provides families with the flexibility of homeschooling, under the supervision of a credentialed teacher. Students may attend enrichment workshops in the arts, science, music, writing, and hands on math. New classes are introduced each quarter, designed to challenge and broaden a student’s experiences. Kairos Public Schools events, field trips, and clubs provide additional hands-on learning and social experiences for students.

 

4.     The Kairos Public Schools Luminary Academy High School is a nonclassroom-based/flex-based learning 9th-12th grade program composed of students desiring to grow as entrepreneurs to meet the challenges of the world. By building upon the skills developed in the K-8th grade programs, this innovative high school academy is focused on creating opportunities for students to solve real-world problems and develop sustainable solutions. 

 

The objective of Kairos Public Schools is to operate academies that act as a “school within a school”. Each academy strives to maintain student to teacher ratios that are lower than or equal to local average ratios to establish a small, personal learning community and ensure all students receive the attention and focus they need and deserve.
