The Puzzle School

An experimental K–12 school

A K-12 educational experience focused on ambiguity.

Ambiguity is everywhere in our lives, especially in learning, but also in who we are, what we care about, and how we live with, treat, and collaborate with each other. Maybe more importantly ambiguity exists in our communities and society, how we can add value to them, how they are structured, and how we can go about influencing that.

Puzzles represent structured exercises in navigating ambiguity.

Our mission: The Puzzle School is a nonprofit organization developing a K–12 educational program that helps young people recognize, live with, and navigate ambiguity. These metacognitive skills provide a foundation for navigating the ambiguity of learning, understanding oneself, collaborating with others, and thriving in an increasingly complex and ambiguous world.

“To teach how to live without certainty, and yet without being paralyzed by hesitation, is perhaps the chief thing that philosophy, in our age, can still do for those who study it.”
