Most schools ask kids to sit still and wait. At Philly ALC, kids are too busy building, making music, debugging code, and planning their next project for that. Curiosity isn't something we try to spark here—it's something we try to keep up with.
We're building the self-directed education community in Philadelphia. We serve families from all backgrounds and use trust-based tuition so finances aren't a barrier. But we need support to:
Employ skilled facilitators
Maintain our spaces and programs
Provide materials and resources
Support families in need
