WE ARE SD

My students are curious and invested in their learning. They are full of gratitude and enthusiasm. It means so much to me that as a community, we have a priority to stretch beyond ourselves, reaching out to serve and lift others up, providing a sense of purpose to our learning and teaching.”
Kate Reeser

Aran Levasseur
Innovation Lead and Humanities Faculty
“The dominant model of learning in schools is one where teachers provide knowledge to students and then students mirror back that knowledge. With Design Thinking, students learn by solving problems in critical and creative ways. It is the process of figuring out how to approach a designated challenge that yields learning, not solely reproducing information.”
Ryan Samway '20
Alumni Spotlight: Ryan Samway '20, Georgetown University
As a highly motivated student both in and out of the classroom, Ryan knew she wanted a college experience that matched the challenge and expectations of high school. “The rigor and the challenge of the courses at San Domenico have prepared me for a college education, as well as the level of performance and commitment expected of the students.

Everyday I am inspired by the work and dedication of my colleagues. I love the support and friendships that have developed through spending time and sharing ideas with each other. I also enjoy the energy and intellectual curiosity of the students. San Domenico is a wonderful place to work!"
