Other similar schools

Steller recently rejoined CES, the Coalition for Essential Schools. There is a new movement progressive schools are developing all over the United States, go to the CES website. Many of the comments I hear about what students and parents want from Steller are echoed by those starting Essential Schools. These schools incorporate many of the qualities that Stellerites hold most important, such as small size, independent learning, personal contact with staff, and "real life" experiences in the community.
