Our Best Schools Based on SOIL:
The School of  Indigenous Learning Model!

 

Our Best Schools are a collective of African-Centered Programs in the U.S. and Abroad.

African-centered education is curriculum and pedagogy based in African Diasporic history, cultures, and motifs. In other words, both what is being taught and the way that it is being taught is culturally aligned with the African Diaspora.

Additionally, the ways in which teachers, students, parents, and community interact is based in a traditional sense of unity with the goal of each student’s greatest personal and academic development being achieved.

Partner with Us

We want to promote those remote educators (who have to apply to work with us and use our model and our network) so they can develop micro-schools in their own communities, using the SOIL model.

Are you an amazing educator with a great sense of humor and creativity? Know a ton about natural living and indigenous culture? Excited about the SOIL model? Ready for something new?

SOIL might be the perfect fit for you. If you’re looking to teach virtually, you should apply for our Virtual Educator positions.

SOIL the School of Indigenous Learning seeks to promote virtual educators who teach lessons that can be hosted on YouTube, as well as our sites, for all to view and share.

The SOIL Model

Reading and Language Arts are part of every experience!

Whatever we do, explore, or learn, we keep journals and take notes and make observations and develop questions to investigate. We create shareable pieces of literature from these notes.

 

 

Math is everywhere so we look for it!

Whenever applicable, we use math as relevant. If something has parts or units involved, or if there’s a profit potential for an idea, we calculate it.

We create things that show what we’ve learned.

The SOIL model offers project-based learning opportunities, meaning you do meaningful work with useful applications in the real world.
