Great Hearts Academies is a non-profit charter school management organization that operates a network of academically rigorous, classical, liberal arts primary, middle, and high schools in the Phoenix, Arizona Metropolitan area and in San Antonio, Texas. This network will prepare its graduates for success in the most highly selective colleges and universities in the nation and will prepare them to become leaders in creating a more philosophical, humane, and just society. Great Hearts’ public academies surpass the best public and private school options in academic outcomes, student moral formation, and comprehensive extra-curricular participation. The ultimate goal of the organization is to graduate “great-hearted” young men and women who possess a sense of destiny and purpose that is directed to the service of the greater good. By engaging in an intense and formative dialogue with the Great Books and Ideas of Western Culture and by conversing with peers and teachers who also seek the truth, students come to understand more fully what it means to be a human being. Together, the Great Hearts Academies are setting a new standard and purpose for public K-12 education. The Great Hearts Network believes in each student’s innate potential to comprehend the rich tradition of Western Civilization to which they are heirs and to grow in the virtues that mark a profound, philosophical life — summarized by the triad of our Latin motto: verum, pulchrum, bonum — truth, beauty, and goodness. These schools have a history of exceeding private and public schools with outstanding academic outcomes, comprehensive arts and athletics programs, and the moral formation of its teachers and students. In Arizona, Great Hearts Academies has 7,469 students enrolled for the 2013-14 school year. There will be over 9,500 students in the Arizona network for the 2014-15 school year. ==National expansion== (Great Hearts Texas ) is a sister network to Great Hearts Arizona and its twenty two academies. Great Hearts Texas will first open schools in San Antonio and then, if approved by the state for further charters, in Dallas, Houston, and Austin. Great Hearts Texas will begin the 2014-15 school year with 590 students in grades K-9 enrolled at the Monte Vista campus in San Antonio. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Great Hearts Academies」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
