Working together
Our students study together and work together. That means collaborating on big projects in the Maker Space, like a hand-made foosball table at Guidepost Academy Austin. It also means engaging in entrepreneurship in and around school, like our students in New York who run a thriving compost bin business for their local community.
With creativity, innovation, and ambition, our students work together in their communities to build new things. They volunteer, they start businesses, and they make art.
