About Us
The Max Warburg Courage Curriculum is a year-long language arts curriculum that invites young people to explore their own capacity to act courageously. The core of the curriculum is the reading of award-winning, age-appropriate books that stress the theme of courage in the lives of children and young adults. The program requires students to examine the many forms of courage by reading these novels, participating in classroom discussions, and writing about courage in their own lives in the lives of those around them and in the community. Our sixth and ninth grade programs, Courage in My Life and The Courage of My Convictions, are voluntarily adopted by teachers in classrooms throughout Boston and beyond the city limits.
