About Larchmont Schools:
Larchmont Schools was founded in 2004 in Los Angeles by a group of parents who were inspired to create an academically rigorous and diverse neighborhood school. Since then, we have grown into an organization serving over 1,500 students through K-12, with our first class of seniors having graduated in June 2016. Larchmont Schools is guided by a constructivist learning theory in the development of an inquiry based, project-based, integrated curriculum to serve a diverse student body. With a student population reaching 40% Free/Reduced Lunch eligible and 60% students of color, Larchmont Schools is one of the most diverse and highest achieving public schools in the city.
The mission of Larchmont Schools is to provide a socio-economically, culturally and racially diverse community of students with an exceptional public education. We foster creativity and academic excellence; our students learn with and from each other in an experience-centered, inquiry-based learning environment. With participation from our entire community, including strong parental involvement, we strive to instill in each student a dedication to improving the world we inhabit. For more information, please visit: www.larchmontcharter.org.
Diversity is core to our model because it is through ensuring a richly diverse environment – of both people and programming – that we create the setting for learning to occur. The diversity of our community provides students the opportunities to interact and benefit from students and staff from disparate backgrounds often resulting in a variety of perspectives leading to diversity of thought and increasing critical and creative thinking. The diversity in the program – both the interdisciplinary project-based learning and the rich array of enrichment and elective offerings – music, art, movement, cooking, gardening, improvisation, and more K-12 – tap into our students’ multiple intelligences and facilitate them making connections across the curriculum. This is the power of our model.
This Diverse by Design video highlights the power of integration and how Larchmont is part of a national movement to realize the vision and promise of Brown v. Board of Education. It was made possible through a generous benefactor and professional filmmaker in our community.
