Holistic education is a comprehensive approach to teaching where educators seek to address students' emotional, social, ethical, and academic needs in an integrated learning format. Emphasis is placed on positive school environments and providing whole-child supports.
The Averroes Environment is an attempt to emulate prophetic moral and ethical teachings. We provide a space where Muslims and people of faith can come together in a safe space and feel confident of their belief in God and their practices.
Another significant component of the Averroes model is student enrichment. This is everything else we offer as a school to build our community of learners. We support the enrichment of each student on an individual level as well as a community level.
At Averroes High School, our goal is to help students achieve mastery in every subject. To reach these goals, various assessments and performance indicators are used to assess students throughout the year. In addition, summer school is required for students who need additional support to acquire mastery.
The Averroes summer sports programs give the youth of our community an opportunity for skill development, fitness, and fun in various activities, such as basketball, tennis, fitness, badminton, and more.
Averroes is a fully college-prep high school. We offer everything a student needs to build for a successful college application and career without needing to arrange costly outside tutoring or activities. We work with students individually to help them get into the college of their choice, including these that accepted Averroes alumni in the past: UC Berkeley, Cornell, UC Davis, UCLA, Purdue, NYU, Spelman, Santa Clara, SF State, SJ State, San Diego State, and Zaytuna College.
