Curriculum tailored to your school or organization
nXu has developed a comprehensive K-12 Purpose, Durable Skills & Wellbeing curriculum, including 700+ 25 minute and 50-60 minute lessons.
A Research-Backed Curriculum for
Future-Ready Students
At nXu, we believe that when students understand their purpose, they thrive—both in school and beyond. That’s why we’ve developed a research-based, CASEL-approved, and NACE-aligned K-12 curriculum that integrates purpose development, durable skills and wellbeing into a powerful learning experience.
Designed for elementary, middle and high school students, our curriculum helps young people build a strong sense of belonging, foster personal and professional growth, and develop the resilience and confidence needed to navigate their futures. Through engaging lessons, students strengthen their empathy and collaboration skills, learn how to build and mobilize social capital, expand their career aspirations, and take purpose-driven action toward meaningful goals.
More than just a set of lessons, the nXu curriculum equips students to define and refine their personal and professional pathways, helping them develop the executive functioning and durable skills essential for long-term success. By focusing on who they are, where they want to go, and how to get there, we empower students to take charge of their futures with confidence and clarity.
nxu’s curricular framework
nXu’s curriculum equips students with six essential durable competencies—Learner, Reflector, Communicator, Collaborator, Contributor, and Critical Thinker—ensuring they are college and career ready. Each competency is tied to a set of durable skills that help students thrive in school, work, and life. Beyond skill-building, our curriculum fosters a strong sense of purpose, empowering students to make informed decisions about their futures. Additionally, we prioritize student wellbeing which is foundational to meaningful learning and growth.
What educators have to say about us:
“I like that it gives our students a structured space to engage authentically with what they’re interested in or passionate about—things we often know about our students, but learn indirectly.”
A Curricular Repository of over 700+ Elementary, Middle and High School Lessons
Incorporate our curriculum into any part of the school day, from advisory and electives to college and career readiness courses. With the guidance of nXu’s partnership support team, we help you select lessons tailored to the unique needs of your students, classroom, and school community.
elementary school curriculum
At nXu, we know that elementary school is a crucial time for students to build confidence, develop critical durable skills, and form meaningful connections. Our engaging, developmentally appropriate curriculum empowers K-5 students to explore who they are, cultivate meaningful connections with their peers and the world around them, and develop essential skills for future success. By fostering self-awareness and supporting durable skill development, we help young learners lay the foundation for purpose-driven learning in middle school, high school, and beyond.
Middle School Curriculum
At nXu, we understand that middle school is a critical time for students to develop the durable skills they need to navigate an ever-changing world. Our middle school curriculum is designed to empower students in grades 6-8 to explore their sense of self, cultivate a sense of purpose, build strong relationships, and develop the skills needed for future success in high school, college, and beyond.
High school curriculum
In today’s rapidly evolving world, students need more than academic knowledge to succeed. nXu’s high school curriculum is designed to equip students in grades 9-12 with the skills, mindset, and clarity they need to confidently navigate the transition to college and career. Our program helps students explore their purpose, set meaningful goals, and develop the career readiness skills that will set them on the path to success.
