FOSTER A CULTURE OF GROWTH
Today’s Engaged Learners
Become Informed Citizens
As young people accept and embrace increasingly active and vibrant roles in their communities, our role as educators must evolve to keep in step with this change. Moving beyond ensuring students demonstrate mastery, education today must ensure students leave the classroom ready to actively engage in global citizenship.
From thought-provoking literature to a rigorous focus on the skills necessary for researching, structuring, composing, and presenting reasoned opinions, Into Literature was designed to ignite the spark that compels every student to get involved in the world around them.

Informed citizens become tomorrow’s leaders.
Our goal is to cultivate young people with the courage to ask the hard questions, the willingness to research controversial topics to develop an informed opinion, and the collaboration skills required to lead their fellow citizens in an ever-changing world.
