Anser consistently encourages a connection to the community and among one another.

The Benefits of a Community Based Curriculum

• Community involvement is woven into every aspect of the day
• A connection to the community is included as part of learning (“fieldwork”)
• Shared leadership is embraced by parents, teachers and students
• There are high expectations of student behavior, driving character growth among students

What is a Community Based Curriculum?

Community Based Curriculum (CBC) is a program unique to Anser. Developed initially by Anser parents as a way to engage students and offer teachers a collaborative work environment, it has grown to be so much more!

Each Wednesday afternoon all Anser students in first through sixth grade leave their classrooms to explore new learning opportunities. Activities related to the Arts, Music, Science, Athletics, Service and more are offered as a “module”, or 6-8 week course. Each module is coordinated by a community member or Anser parent with talents to share. Some modules stay on campus while others occur offsite with community partners.

Parental Involvement

Parental Involvement is critical to the success of Anser’s CBC program. Module coordinators, volunteers and drivers are needed each week to facilitate our student’s exploration of CBC activities. CBC is a great way for parents to get involved with the school, meet other Anser parents and get to know their children’s friends.
