History

Founded in 1996, in Prescott, Arizona, Skyview was one of the first charter schools in the state. The school was begun by a group of parents seeking a learning environment exemplified by an active, relevant, and inspiring pedagogy. After two years of research and discussion, an educational program was developed based on the traditional values of respect and responsibility and characterized by cognitive research supported pedagogy. (Pedagogy refers to the strategies, techniques, and approaches that teachers use to facilitate learning.)

Using the multiple intelligences to inform the curriculum and further students’ understanding, the founders blended inquiry, project-based learning, state standards, gifted education, and authentic assessment into a unique framework.
