SERVICES:
Parkmont is an intentionally small school for grades 6 through 12. Since 1972, we’ve had our own original, progressive approach to engaging students in the endeavor of getting themselves ready for a successful future. Our students learn in multi-grade classes of 8-10 kids that rely on a blend of classroom work, real-life experiences, travel, and technology.
There are three major components to our program: 1) a streamlined academic structure that emphasizes hands-on learning; 2) comprehensive academic support services and one-to-one mentoring; and 3) an expansive, thoughtful, and well-supervised internship program that hones practical work skills along with a vision of career possibilities.
Our long history working with students with a variety of learning needs, as well as the experience and commitment of our staff, allow us to work successfully with a wide range of students, including those with learning and anxiety/social issues.
