“The times they are a-changin.’” So wrote Bob Dylan in 1964. If the Nobel laureate was right then, his words, by now, have proven a vast understatement. Santa Monica Academy has embraced the reality of change, pushing education into the future and transforming it to meet the challenges and opportunities of the new millennium.
We founded Santa Monica Academy on two principles. First, education has to change in tandem with a dynamic, increasingly interconnected global landscape. Second, pushing the envelope on education should not sacrifice academic rigor; in fact, it is the only way to make sure that education meets students where they are and grounds them in the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that they need to succeed in the 21st century. We believe that Santa Monica Academy provides a modern education suited to the modern world. Our students, teachers, and all come to Santa Monica Academy because they recognize something about themselves in our school – an unflagging desire to improve, to inspire, and to innovate.
The challenge of Santa Monica Academy's borderless education is the same as its promise. Each student deserves a truly personalized education that, despite its individuality, gives them educational and professional opportunities anywhere: in an economics doctorate program, a software engineering course in London, a visual arts BFA in Boston, or a public health administration degree in Beijing. Santa Monica Academy’s students will be the leaders of the next generation. The only question is this: what will you contribute?
