Established in 2009, Discover Academy is a school within a school, located on the campus of Sequoia Middle School. Discover offers the advantages of both traditional and small learning communities.

Using the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) Cross-Cutting Concepts to connect across the content areas of English, science, and history, the Discover Academy provides students with hands-on learning experiences. Students work collaboratively during activities, labs, and projects and also engage in critical thinking and authentic assessments. Discover students connect to the community through community service projects, exposure to guest speakers and field excursions.

Additionally, Discover's students are afforded the opportunity to take full advantage of Sequoia's diverse offering of electives, highly regarded physical education curriculum, and varied educational opportunities such as accelerated/honors level classes in the 6th, 7th and 8th grade academic years.

Students in the Discover Academy love science, collaborative projects and hands-on learning.
They learn best through the integration of curriculum that builds upon connections.
