This week, we celebrate a wonderful new start for Da Vinci Connect High as they open their doors at their beautiful new campus, located at 550 Continental Blvd. in El Segundo.
The 13,300 square foot campus underwent an extensive interior renovation of an existing office suite, combining the best of what college and workplace settings can offer. Designed by Gensler, the campus includes 9 unique learning spaces, tiered seating amphitheater-style, a variety of collaborative work areas with white boards and work booths, group meeting rooms, an outside lunch area, and much more. The network infrastructure allows for students and staff to easily connect personal devices and share information. A strategic mixture of modern furniture donated by Belkin International gives the space a real *wow* factor. >> View Photos
Students attending Da Vinci Connect High earn a high school diploma and an Associate or Bachelor’s degree at the same time, for free. Connect High has a hybrid learning schedule with 2 days per week on campus and 3 days per week working from home (or anywhere!). Connect High is now accepting applications for 9th, 10th, and 11th grades for the 2022-23 school year. >> Learn More
We are so grateful to all our students and families and Da Vinci staff who have worked together to make the new campus a reality. A huge thank you also to the City of El Segundo who helped guide us through the construction and site inspection process, and to Gensler and Belkin, our longtime community partners who are all-in for Da Vinci. We appreciate you!
Da Vinci Extension (DVX) also shares the new space with Connect High.
As of February 7, 2022, Da Vinci Connect High School students will be required to use their student ID cards to receive a school meal. They will need to run the ID card through the barcode reader. If your student does not have a school ID please see Jacob Diaz, jdiaz@davincischools.org, for a temporary one. All meals are free for all students.
Don’t forget that breakfast is now available!
