About JDAL

Welcome!

The John Dewey Academy of Learning (JDAL) offers an innovative choice for 6th–12th grade students in the Green Bay Area Public School (GBAPS) District. JDAL provides students with the opportunity to thrive in collaborative, interdisciplinary, technology-rich learning environments. Students engage with the world outside the classroom walls by delving into the exciting world of partnerships with Green Bay area organizations and businesses; furthermore, students take ownership of their learning by synthesizing authentic projects that focus on topics relevant to their lives.


Testimonials

I love what JDAL has to offer. Having the ability to get involved with community work, a chance to go in-depth with the career of choice, hands-on experience in the field & having access to college credit, while still in high school. I wish this type of school was around when I was in high school. My child enjoys JDAL and feels that he's apart of another family.
