Welcome to Khan Lab School
Khan Lab School (KLS), is a non-profit independent K-12 school in Silicon Valley, committed to innovative teaching and learning. We prioritize mastery-based learning, foster a culture of mutual learning between students and teachers, build caring and trusting relationships, and emphasize the effective use of time, space, and technology. Our approach includes cultivating an inclusive environment that nurtures each student's individual academic development.
What Makes Us
Different?
Mastery-Based
Our educational approach differs from traditional grading. Students must show knowledge and skills before moving to the next level. We focus on personalized learning, adapting to individual needs, abilities, and learning styles.
Learner-Centered
Students actively influence their education, having a say in what, when, and how they learn. We equip them with not just academic knowledge but also crucial skills like self-direction, curiosity, creativity, and collaboration, for future success.
Experiential Learning
We prioritize experiential learning by immersing students in real-world scenarios and offering hands-on experiences for practical skills and valuable insights. This includes opportunities in our Innovation Hub, outdoor education, travel experiences, field trips, internships, and applied learning opportunities.
