academics
The mission of the academic program is to prepare students for college and life as a creative professional.
Academic instructional environments encourage inquiry and intellectual curiosity and empower students to raise questions and develop a pattern of lifelong learning. Students enjoy small class sizes, multiple AP options, and innovative lessons taught by fully licensed teachers. Curriculum is active, collaborative, and aligned with state standards. Students self-select on-level or advanced and AP options.
Congratulations to senior Bridget Cisneros! Bridget was one of the very few high school students selected into the Young Woman's Initiative of Minnesota this fall!
The Young Women’s Initiative of Minnesota (YWI MN) is a partnership between the Governor’s Office, the Women’s Foundation of Minnesota, and the YWCA. The YWI MN includes a cabinet, which is comprised of young women and gender-expansive youth aged 16-24, and an executive council, which is comprised of leaders from government, business, academia, philanthropy, and nonprofits.
YWI MN centers the leadership and solutions of young women of color, American Indian young women, young women from Greater Minnesota, LGBTQ+ youth, and young women with disabilities. The initiative brings together nonprofits, businesses, government, philanthropies, and young women to promote equitable systems that benefit all, grounded in the belief that when young Black, Indigenous, and women of color in Minnesota thrive, families and communities thrive. The YWI MN’s statewide partnership and direct investments in young women and gender-expansive people are now being replicated across the nation through the National Philanthropic Collaborative of Young Women’s Initiatives.
Bridget would love to meet with other SPCPA students to talk about the application process and the program itself.

Fun weekend field trip for Ms. Basheer's AP Stats class (and some of Alec Rutten's AP Calc students) – they went bowling this past Saturday to collect data to demonstrate knowledge of their statistical concepts and to celebrate the end of the AP Statistics exam. Students want to test their hypotheses that having a long hand will make a player a better bowler. They created a 95% confidence interval and used a significance test or Chi-Square to test their hypotheses.

Juniors in AP Lang with Ms. Sekelsky celebrated the end of their unit with a Gatsby-themed party. The students shared their literary analysis projects and drank punch, listened to jazz, and played games.
