Bloom KKCA Academy

1. A future-wise school
Designed by educators, entrepreneurs, and engineers, Bloom KKCA Academy is built with an eye toward the future. We prioritize the mindsets and skills of adaptable innovators, and equip students with at least two world languages, self-agency, global competence, and the desire to contribute. But a truly future-wise school is also grounded in the wisdom of the past and we respect the indispensable role of the arts and humanities, of community values and traditions.
2. We have outstanding teachers who teach differently
From a NASA engineer who teaches students to design their own experiments to a reading specialist who ensures we have a top-notch literacy program, Bloom teachers are masters of their subjects as well as leaders of pedagogical innovation. They have high expectations and guide each student’s learning journey.
3. We are bilingual and multicultural
Being bilingual, multicultural is part of our DNA. We integrate Chinese and English into different subjects from math to art, as well as our campfires, projects, and field trips. Our students work in two languages to develop applied fluency, and we draw from innovation practices from the East as well as the West.
4. We offer a world-class STEM education
Designed by a team of experienced STEM educators and incorporating excellent principles and practices from leading STEM schools and ISTE, we integrate design thinking, ed tech, and STEM into the learning experience so that it becomes a powerful way of thinking and problem-solving.
5. We are designed for deep and personalized learning
Each child blooms in their own way. We offer Learner Portfolios to track individual progress, flexible grouping, choice in personal projects, and low student to teacher ratios. We push our students to critically examine facts and ideas and actively forge questions and connections of their own.
6. We prepare students for academic and career success
With a commitment to real-world learning and industry application, Bloom KKCA Academy lays the foundation of lifelong academic and career success. Our culture and curriculum develop resilience, knowledge mastery, intellectual vitality and a sense of purpose valued by top universities and companies.
7. We are a close-knit, nurturing, positive community
This is an intentionally small school. We want to provide a sense of belonging to our students to give them a safe place to form friendships, take risks, fail and learn. As a community that embraces Positive Education, each staff member strives to model a life with positive relationships and well-being.
