Academics

At Empathy, one of our goals is that our students are learning academics at a deep and holistic level. Empathy School was developed at Harvard by Eric GP and Echo Xui with the assistance of many professional educators and professors. Every aspect of the school from lesson plans to landscape architecture is based on the science of how students learn. We do select aspects of Montessori, Emilio Regio, Waldorf Steine to support our academic programs. We utilize Non-Violent Communication to support our Social Emotional Learning programs because we believe the most important requirement for a student to learn is that they feel physically and emotionally safe within a school setting. In addition, we create much of our own curriculum based on current science.
