Fusion - striving to make teaching and learning more personal and to provide students and staff with more of a family and community-oriented learning environment, Paradise High School has developed a small learning community called Fusion.
Students in the community are linked together for three classes each year with music or technology as the focus of the curriculum.
Fusion is based on the principle that students learn better and develop a deeper understanding of the curriculum by developing personal relationships with their instructors.
Fusion applies academic rigor to its program. Students have a chance to learn skills to help promote their success in the music and technology industries. |
