Since 2001, our staff has been leaders in innovative ways to approach education. Element Education is a non-profit corporation that oversees two publicly funded charter schools.

The mission of its schools and programs shall be to inspire each child’s natural desire to learn by offering choice, flexibility, and learning standards based on learning styles and the developmental stages of the learner. This is accomplished through the use of research-based learning styles programs and in partnership with parents and community resources.

Learners will be knowledgeable and skilled (mastery), self-directed (autonomy), and engaged in meaningful learning (purpose) in their educational journey to adulthood.

With 1,600 students throughout San Diego County, Element Education is home to Dimensions Collaborative with its personalized learning styles models, and Community Montessori , which implements Montessori Style principles.
