![]() We see a lot of activity in the arts and it’s very diverse. It seems to be a working-class city where you have a mix of people that are servicing the New York or Manhattan area, but it also has a very unique identity in and of itself. You have the Science Center, culture institutions, and many young families. Jersey City is a very vibrant city and culturally rich. New Jersey, and specifically Jersey City, seems to be a very good fit for where our first expansion would be. We are now looking to take that model, expand it, and grow it into other areas around the country. This past year, Apple came, and featured us on their home page. Since then, we’ve been honored as one of the most innovative schools in the world. In 2013, we had the opportunity to open up our flagship high school in Center City Philadelphia, and opened that as a more grown-up model of our K-8 schools. You can be an art major, music major, or any one of those. In 5 th grade, they choose one of those 7 subjects as a major and spend 90 minutes every day in the major. For K-5, our school model includes a discovery process for kids to figure out what type of creative they are and what type of learner they are. They have their 5 academics and then 7 extra classes. Kindergarten students don’t know they’re not supposed to have 13 classes when they start school. There are three performing arts including Vocal Music, Instrumental Music, Classical Ballet, plus French as a Foreign Language, Creative Writing, Visual Arts, and Science and Technology. With those 90 minutes, students in Kindergarten through 5 th grade get seven extra classes in the arts and sciences. Primarily, we have a 90-minute longer school day than that of our local school district. The first school that we opened was in 2000 as one of the first elementary schools in Pennsylvania to link academic performance to the arts.įor the first 10 years, it grew to become one of the highest performing schools in Philadelphia and is unique for several reasons. String Theory Education is the expansion arm of String Theory Schools, which operates four schools in Philadelphia including Philadelphia Performing Arts Charter School, the largest charter school in Philadelphia authorized for over 2500 students K-12. I am the co-founder and CEO of String Theory Education. If you’re interested and want to know more about the schools, register now on ! String Theory Schools will be coming to the Jersey City area on August 30th to host an information session. I invited Jason Corosanite, CEO of String Theory Education, to my office to give us the background and story behind String Theory Schools and their plans for Jersey City. They prepare students for their future in the 21st century. The curriculum is innovative and progressive, so much so that Apple recently featured them on their website. String Theory Schools’ education approach focuses on S.T.E.M and the arts. I needed to find out more, and especially know how I could get my little one in there! String Theory currently operates four schools in Philadelphia and when I looked into them, I thought they were too good to be true. We have so many questions! Public schools? Charter school? Private? I don’t even know where to begin.Ī few months ago, I heard about String Theory Schools, who were looking for spaces in Jersey City. It is so crazy how time flies! We are at the point where we are looking into options for her future.
