Our mission at Alice Carlson Applied Learning Center is to educate, empower, and nurture lifelong learners through Applied Learning.

We are united by the following core values:

Choice:  We provide choices to encourage students to be accountable for their own learning and discover their voice while respecting others' differences.
Rigor:  We challenge all students to engage in meaningful learning opportunities asking them to reflect and self-assess.
Authenticity:  We create an environment that promotes problem identification, inquiry, and problem solving to find solutions to real world problems.
Community:  We engage in our local community to interact with our world.  We learn to make our world better through empathy, respect, and action.
Collaboration:  We guide students to work in teams to encourage thinkers, problem solvers and lifelong learners.
