A tuition-free, public charter school
S2 engages, educates and empowers its students to respond mindfully and creatively to life’s opportunities and challenges. School in the Square (S2) draws its name from the concept of the public square – a place where our students, families, and educators gather to learn from, support, and celebrate one another.
S2 is built on the belief that to optimize learning, students need to feel safe, and parents have to feel welcomed.
Through regular communication and a true partnership with our families, we aim to provide all of the support every family needs and every child deserves.
To partner with our families from early childhood through high school and beyond.
To prepare our students for the real world as thoughtful, biliterate, and civically-engaged citizens.
To empower youth to realize the strength in their voices.
To improve the quality of life and outcomes for our families and students.
