      Philosophy

The North Fork School offers part-time enrollment so that students in McCall, Idaho may remain fully enrolled in their public school programs, and so students in online or home school programs may receive the benefits of a classroom dynamic as well as personal academic coaching that enhances each individual curriculum. By reducing public school class sizes, yet not diminishing per-student school funding, the North Fork School promotes a symbiotic relationship with local public schools while offering increased academic challenge to students.

Understanding that students find academic motivation and success through individual achievement, The North Fork School challenges students to explore their own intellectual potentials. An integrated humanities curriculum facilitates students' abilities to connect ideas across subject areas and their unique life experiences. North Fork School programs maintain that learning is a process in which students have the key role.

 Mission

To provide challenging, integrated, academic curricula that students combine with their public school schedules.

To encourage students’ personal responsibility for their own intellectual successes.

To offer individual academic and intellectual milestones which balance the recreational and athletic opportunities in McCall.

To create an atmosphere where students cherish the life of the mind.
