At Peconic Community School, whether we’re out in the field researching with experts or in the classroom conferring with peers, the goal is the same:to engage insightfully in inquiry.

Inquiring means, of course, asking questions and analyzing problems (these are hallmarks of active learning). But at PCS, we also want studentsto care enough to seek answersto the questions they pose. We want our studentsto want to solve the problemsthey encounter.

Sometimes engaging means heading out to the field to track down an answer or see something firsthand, and sometimes it means slowing down where we are to take a closer look or turn to a friend.

But always it isthis quality of caring– caring to seek, caring to reach, whether outward or inward -- that we hope to inspire in our students. For it is this caring that will in turn inspire children to change the world.

We cultivate this spirit of care at Peconic Community School with an educational approach centered around hands-on, authentic learning experiences within and about our local environment and community (what we refer to asplace-basedandproject-basededucation).

peconic community school curriculum

Integrated, project-based curriculum that is relevant and responsive.

The PCS approach begins with a clear, and bold, vision: education should prepare students to change the world. And, students whoknow how to learnabout the world and whoknow how to careabout the world are in the strongest position to initiate and support positive change.

Learning to care about the world is a dynamic and courageous process shared by PCS students and educators; it is a process that unfolds in real time, both in our classrooms and in our community.

Education at PCS is place-based, which means that students work from and within the environment and communities of Long Island’s East End. This is where learning begins.

It is also where learningGROWS.

When education is connected physically and socially to the local environment and community, students form meaningful relationships with the people and places they encounter.

The more students connect, the more they care. And, the more they care, the more care they take. What we see each year at PCS are students growing into caretakers. We see local stewards: cleaning beaches, planting seeds, and making sandwiches. We see global citizens: writing speeches, raising money, and speaking out.

resilience is a combination of strength and flexibility

Peconic Community School was founded in 2012 with a clear understanding that modern schools need to educate children for an uncertain future, one whose lifestyles and career opportunities are difficult to predict.

And so, it is withthe goal of fostering resilience, reflection, and compassionthat PCS approaches educating children for the realities of the 21st century.

孩子与不同入渗能力面临挑战nation and grace, who are able to pause and look within to find strength and clarity, and who are able to reach out with courage and understanding (that is, children who are resilient, reflective, and compassionate learners) are uniquely prepared to soar into the future.

The approaches used to implement curriculum at PCS (place-based education, project-based learning, and integrated study) foster these qualities of resilience, reflection, and compassion by engaging and inspiring the whole child.

We believe that children’s social emotional well-being is essential: for engaging the whole child, for achieving academic success, and for growing a thriving, productive community. In turn, a strong, healthy community bolsters the spirit and success of each of its members.

PCS commits to nourishing the emotional and social lives of its students with daily practices in mindfulness and intentional focus on shared Community Values. These approaches foster respect, encourage reflection, and promote active, compassionate citizenship.

Learning at play.

Early Childhood at Peconic Community School is a fully immersive, play-based program that encourages multi-sensory exploration, kindles children's innate sense of wonder, and provides plenty of opportunities for both imaginative play and experimentation with the natural world .

Education unfolds at Peconic Community School through a dynamic progression of innate wonder, deliberate exploration, critical thought, and creative innovation, all within the context of community interaction.
