AVENUES ONLINE
EXTRAORDINARY LEARNING
ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD
Avenues Online (AON) is the online campus of Avenues: The World School, supporting middle and upper school grades 6-12. With physical campuses in New York, São Paulo, Shenzhen, and other campuses under development in key cities around the world, Avenues Online is the Avenues everywhere solution. Wherever there is an Internet connection, there is AON.
“We will graduate students who are accomplished in the academic skills one would expect; at ease beyond their borders… and, most importantly, architects of lives that transcend the ordinary.”
Avenues Mission Statement
Great Works
Intensive Reading + Extensive Making
Blending a great books curriculum with project-based pedagogy, AON offers a unique learning experience centered on primary texts that evoke real-world debates. Our students sharpen critical thinking and critical doing skills by putting complex ideas not only into dialogue but also into action—great works are both studied and created by our students.
“We must change the way we educate our students if we are to prepare them for an unknowable future.”
Ty Tingley, AON Co-Head of School
Math Inquiry
Deep Discussions, Authentic Collaborations
The AON Math Inquiry Program is based on the premise that learning mathematics is an active, participatory enterprise. Curiosity-piquing problems and peer insights engage student imaginations and cultivate computational thinking. Our curriculum is based on materials created by Phillips Exeter Academy, with original exercises scaffolded to create authentic learning experiences in mathematics uniquely designed for our online platform.
“I like that we don’t just focus on whether the final answer is right or wrong—we focus on understanding why.”
Victor, Grade 7, Avenues Online
Global Passport
Real Conversations, 50+ Languages
Studying other languages doesn’t just provide social and personal benefits. It’s also beneficial to the development of brain functions and cognitive skills. The Global Passport curriculum focuses on task-based language learning and enables our students to choose from over 50 languages of study—from Mandarin to Malay, from Spanish to Swahili, from Portuguese to Punjabi.
“I live my life in widening circles
That reach out across the world.”
Rainer Maria Rilke
Mind and Body
Play Together, Stay Together
In partnership with LIFT Session, AON students develop their strength, endurance, and flexibility in live interactive exercise sessions run by world-class fitness coaches. Sessions are 30-minutes and require no special exercise equipment. Yoga. HIIT Tabata. Cardio blast. Metcon. And more. Students get in the best shape of their lives. And because the family that plays together stays together, families and faculty are free to join in the workouts!
“There are no passengers on spaceship earth. We are all crew.”
