Our Schools

Catalyst Public Schools: Bremerton

The mission of Catalyst: Bremerton is to support our diverse scholars to live full lives and to succeed in college, career and life. Our scholars will find their purpose and passion so that they can cultivate the critical hope, optimism, and leadership essential to be catalysts in their community and world. Catalyst graduates build a strong understanding of themselves, envision the world in which they want to live, and develop the agency to access the future of their dreams. We leverage small-group, data-driven academic rotations to personalize learning for each scholar. Scholars also participate in Catalyst’s Change Maker Space to identify challenges in the community about which they hold fervent enthusiasm and work collaboratively to generate novel solutions to these challenges.

We expand the concept of our classroom beyond our school walls to include our local community, with wider application to the nation and the globe.
• We engage with families as partners so all feel vested and equipped with the tools necessary to make a positive contribution to the student’s development.
