About Us
Great Art, Great Thought
Katherine Anne Porter School, a creative community celebrating diversity and freedom in learning, identifies creativity as the key to every door of genuine, life-long success. Our mission is to educate and empower our students with knowledge, skills, and practices to be successful and compassionate in school and life. In education, the door to success changes, or simply becomes harder to engage, and today’s educators realize they are preparing students for careers that may not yet exist. We believe creativity, emblazoned by the freedom to employ our imagination, remains the key no matter the door or career path. As a result, we pride ourselves in offering an environment conducive to just such a belief, grounded in valuing each individual.
Reach Your Potential
Katherine Anne Porter School envisions highly developed and valued individuals who are engaged and successful at reaching their full potential because we offer what so very few schools do. Of course, like most, we value creative arts. We offer fine arts classes like music, art and theatre, but we are more about offering creativity as the conduit to high-level learning in all classes. Our core content teachers strive to foster creativity in each student as they approach English, mathematics, science and social studies. We do not feel students should switch from right-brain to left-brain when exposed to knowledge and skills so important to academic achievement; we believe they should engage the entire brain as they become life-long learners where every moment is an opportunity to learn. And, we don’t just believe it; we practice it!
A School of Creativity
Katherine Anne Porter School teachers and staff live lives of creativity. Like all good teachers, we know modeling is important to leading others to new, and/or deeper knowledge. As such, we engage creativity in our own lives, whether contemplating the creativity of others, or operating in the freedom of our personal creative juices
