our mission
Community-centered education.
our vision
Puget Sound Community School is committed to centering intentionally excluded perspectives in curriculum and programming. With collaboration framing our approach, community-centered education prioritizes the lived experience of our students and staff, while offering young people opportunities to take increasing responsibility for their own education.
our impact
Puget Sound Community School provides fearless and effective learning for the next generation of progressive voices. In a safe and structured space, students develop a strong sense of self, rooted in personal identity and meaningfully informed by local, global, and historical contexts. Students graduate from PSCS not only prepared for higher education, satisfying careers, and world travel—but for life itself, carrying forward a deep commitment to justice and leadership for humanity. With intrinsic curiosity and critical thinking skills honed in a respectful and collaborative environment, our graduates are uniquely empowered to meet the most urgent challenges of our time with integrity, creativity, and courage.
our students are:
When students are trusted to take ownership of their learning, they develop a deeper sense of curiosity that drives meaningful exploration. This autonomy encourages them to ask bold questions, think critically, and pursue knowledge beyond the classroom. As a result, they grow into confident, self-directed leaders equipped to navigate complex challenges with purpose and integrity.
