The vision of The Lorge School is to create a family oriented approach that focuses on embracing the symbiotic relationship between school and the community, students and teachers, and academic performance with parental involvement in an ever-changing urban setting. We envision creating an inclusive and enriching environment that places social/emotional intelligence and academic development at its core. All Lorge staff members are expected to build long-term relationships with students and their families in order to build a trusting network of support in response to the complex transitions of adolescence.
