The Intergenerational School

The Intergenerational School (TIS) is an innovative educational model that combines students of different ages in the same classroom, fostering peer learning and mentorship. This approach promotes collaboration, social skills, and mutual respect, creating a community-oriented environment. TIS also integrates older adults or community members into the learning process, enriching students' experiences and fostering intergenerational understanding. The goal is to support personalized learning, develop social-emotional skills, and prepare students to be thoughtful, engaged citizens by building meaningful relationships across age groups.
