The school had been running for over 20 years, and earned two awards of Special Merit from the Grammy Foundation in Los Angeles.

The school was designed for students searching for a nontraditional learning environment that embraced diversity, inclusion, different learning styles and preferences, tools, and a student empowered curriculum.

The school sponsored exchange programs with Russia and Mexico.

The school promoted social responsibility, respect for cultural diversity and appreciation for lifelong learning, and was founded with the support of North Kitsap School District and Chris Wendelyn in 1986.

Courses met all requirements for a formal STEM education and graduation with a high school diploma.
