Discovery Elementary School, at 13104 109 Avenue, was a K-7 school with 133 students as of 16 January 2006. The Principal was C. Graham.
Discovery was founded about forty years ago by parents and teachers and was based on the Adlarian philosophy. In its early days, the school had strong parent involvement in learning, and students often learned in alternative environments including field trips and museums. Doctoral-level educators were sometimes brought in. The classroom setting at Discovery had no desks; instead, students sat in a circle on the floor, to give a sense of equality and to facilitate eye contact and communication. There were, however, chairs in the computer room and sofas in the library.
