Embracing the Power of Ideas

Developing confident, self-directed, well-educated students begins in elementary school. Our students develop the habits of mind and intellectual foundations critical to their success in our middle and high schools. Minimizing direct instruction, teachers encourage hands-on exploration, peer-to-peer discussion, and real-life problem-solving to solidify knowledge.

Opening Doors Through Reading

Children who love and excel at reading can teach themselves anything! Our literacy and writing program introduces elementary students to thought-provoking ideas through authors, characters, and themes reflecting the diversity of our classrooms.

Stretching the Boundaries of Problem-Solving

Our hands-on math & science program helps students build a broad foundation of knowledge that supports them in accelerated Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) studies in middle school, college-level STEM in high school, and beyond.

Enriching Experiences Beyond the Classroom

Students are introduced to an exciting world of arts and sports to further explore their talents. We believe providing ample opportunities for expression outside the classroom is critical to a rich education.

Fostering Emotional Growth and Independence

The elementary years are foundational to helping children develop the skills to navigate life confidently and productively. Our educators collaborate with social-emotional specialists to help students take steps toward independence.
