NSU University School

[EduCativ]

NSU University School is one of the only schools in the state of Florida that is located on the campus of a leading research university, affording our students unprecedented access to college-level resources and opportunities. At NSU University School, the classroom is our cornerstone, but we recognize that proper development takes a combination of academics, arts, athletics, and community service. By allowing our students to focus on their talents and strengths, we can bring out the best in them today - and well into the future.
School students are an impressive group—confident, excited about learning, and creative in so many different ways. That is because they do not sit passively here. Instead, they are engaged, take on different roles, and learn to formulate questions. The results are graduates who can think through ideas and apply their learning to the world around them.
School teachers understand that every child learns in his or her way, so they continually develop instructional approaches to reach every learner. They know that a "one size fits all" education never really fits and places value on fostering academic and personal growth in every child. At school, rigor means something different for every student. We provide a disciplined approach to instruction that is differentiated and personalized. Rigor is age-appropriate and balanced to allow your child to be challenged without sacrificing emotional well being.
Our connection to Nova Southeastern University offers students unmatched opportunities and the ability to work collaboratively with world-class NSU scientists, researchers, and distinguished professors. Many of our students use NSU facilities to further their research and interest in a particular field. For example, students can conduct cutting-edge marine science research at NSU's Guy Harvey Oceanographic Center or work with leading medical researchers at the Center for Collaborative Research, one of the largest and most advanced research facilities in the state of Florida.
NSU University School teachers are passionate and well-qualified educators who facilitate collaboration, active learning, and personalized instruction in each of their classrooms. They develop deep, enduring connections with their students and support them in the classroom, stage, and athletic fields.
NSU University School students find limitless opportunities to pursue existing passions and to uncover interests and talents they never knew they possessed. They achieve excellence, guided by dedicated faculty who know all of our students as individuals and are committed to helping them achieve at their highest possible level. By the time our students are ready to graduate, they are equipped with the skills they will need to thrive in college and beyond.
Our school is committed to educating students to be citizens in a diverse and inclusive global community. With a focus on social-emotional learning, our students develop empathy, respect, and an understanding of those with different backgrounds and perspectives while also learning to advocate for themselves and others.
At school, we work together to build an environment that welcomes, values, and respects every member of our community regardless of age, ability, culture, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and socio-economic background. Our students come to us from across the nation and worldwide, bringing a diversity of perspectives to classroom discussions and student life.
