Afrocentric Inquiry-Based Learning
Reclaiming African narratives and empowering learners to explore knowledge through their cultural lens
Afro Centric Inquiry Based Learning empowers learners to explore knowledge through the lens of their cultural identity. It values indigenous wisdom, historical context, and communal knowledge systems.
At Jasiri, this model reclaims African narratives, encouraging students to ask critical questions rooted in their realities. It fosters a sense of belonging and pride, blending ancestral insight with modern inquiry.
This approach does not merely supplement mainstream education—it reimagines it, shifting the locus of knowledge from external sources to within the community and the self.

Culture as Medicine
Connecting children to culture is an intentional, healing act at Jasiri School.
Through dance, storytelling, and naming traditions, children reclaim a sense of continuity and belonging. For trauma-affected learners, cultural connection grounds them in something timeless and larger than themselves.
This cultural reconnection is foundational to our trauma-informed approach, bringing ancestral wisdom into the classroom and reinforcing emotional and spiritual safety.
