Search Washington High Schools | US News. NOVA High School - About our School. The Nova Project is committed to a student-centered education. Students choose their classes and are directly involved in creating their schedules. In the classroom and through independent learning contracts, students can follow their own passions while creating unique and individual ways to demonstrate their learning. This philosophy of student involvement extends beyond the academic to the school and its governance. Students take responsibility not only for their own learning, but also for the institution in which their learning occurs. Learning to take responsibility for one’s own education is an educational experience in itself.
