Director, Wes Anderson, Skypes into The Cinema School’s Mid-Winter Institute for a Q&A with students.  January 2010.

Our curriculum in all courses helps students become stronger thinkers and develop the skills needed to accomplish great things in any field.  The three pillars of our academic program are:

1.   The Liberal Arts Tradition- Emphasizing a broadening of the mind over regurgitation of facts.  This tradition also emphasizes the importance of being well-rounded, thus we offer students a rigorous college preparatory curriculum.

2.   Situated and Purposeful approach to teaching and learning.  Learning through creating authentic work relevant to the world.

3.   Learning through the lens of a filmmaker: Storytelling, Critical Literacies, Visual Thinking, and Praxis.
