What is HighScope?

Have you ever heard of HighScope education? Are you surprised there are so many alternative education methods?
​
HighScope focuses immensely on “active participatory learning.” The children have hands-on experiences in their own learning with the support of educators and adults to scaffold their knowledge. The basis of all the children's activities are their own interests. They get to have an active say in what they are learning and how they do it with the support of the educators.
