The Environmental Academy of Research Technology and EartH Sciences (EARTHS) Magnet School for K-5 students, offers each student a challenging curriculum that is interwoven with environmental science and technology. We offer a diverse, content-rich, hands-on, engaging curriculum and provides students with unique opportunities through its integrated inquiry-based science curriculum, which utilize the Exploration Center and bio labs, as well as an innovative outdoor learning program.
EARTHS promotes learning as an integrated, interdisciplinary process rather than as a series of isolated subjects. The focus is on earth, life and physical sciences and technology, providing students with an opportunity to learn through active engagement and receive in-depth science exposure. By delving more deeply into subjects with a cross-curricular approach and using science and technology as a unifying theme for exploration, EARTHS helps students acquire the tools of inquiry and expression so that each student can construct a personally meaningful understanding of the world and become an imaginative, independent thinker. This approach, coupled with service learning opportunities, a strong presence of parents, through a minimum of three volunteer hours per month per family, and our community partners, creates an environment where students develop a capacity for service learning, cooperation, and responsibility.
As part of the Conejo Valley Unified School District, we receive the same funding as every school in our district and the State of California. Our program is made possible by contributions from our Community Partners, EARTHS PTA and EARTHS parents. We are very thankful for our relationships.
