Little Red School House and Elisabeth Irwin High School Homepage

A leader in progressive education since 1921, LREI teaches children to be independent thinkers who work together to solve complex problems. Students graduate from our diverse community as active participants in our democratic society, with the creativity, integrity, and courage to bring meaningful change to the world.
The World is Our Classroom
Authentic inquiry requires students to explore the world using all of their intellectual skills. Once data is collected, they collaborate to make sense of all they uncovered.
A 14-Year Experience
