An Overview
The middle years program at Futuro Verde finds its strength in the interaction between the distinct subject areas. Students receive their core studies with a strong focus on inquiry and the learning process. With emphasis on critical thinking, community service and creativity our students are supported and inspired each day in their learning. With new knowledge coming from in and outside the classroom, students actively participate in their learning; they explore, discover and problem solve.
