Learning for the Real World
The Workshop School was established in 2013 to honor the diverse interests and learning styles of students and to build a curriculum focused on project-based instruction and real-world experiences that prepare them for success in college and/or careers. We strive to create a democratic and just community that values interpersonal connections and respects the talents and abilities of all members of our school family.
An open admission high school primarily serving students from West and North Philadelphia, the Workshop School promotes real-world success by offering a structured sequence of programming that utilizes interdisciplinary projects, exhibitions, internships, youth entrepreneurship, and dual enrollment opportunities. Through these experiences, students develop a broad and diverse set of skills that go well beyond traditional content knowledge and are indispensable to postsecondary success.
