The 5 Pillars of Learning at Orinda Academy

Posted on September 3, 2014June 14, 2018

As a parent, there are few things more important to you than your child’s education. As your child grows into a teenager, you’ll be faced with the question of where to send him to high school so that he can thrive and succeed both academically and socially. At Orinda Academy in the East Bay, we believe in the Five Pillars of Learning for academic, social, and emotional success. Academic success, organization, communication, community involvement, and personal growth are emphasized across all departments so that our students graduate as well-rounded and balanced individuals. Take a look at this infographic to learn more about the Five Pillars of Learning and how they translate to life inside and outside of the classroom. Please share with your friends and family so they too can make the best decision possible about where their children should attend private high school.
