Curriculum

The curriculum is integrated across subject areas, creating a more powerful educational experience through collaboration. With small class size, teachers can provide the nurturing and guidance necessary to allow all students to become truly excited about learning and actively engage in their experience. Children aren’t expected to fit into a mold, but rather are given support and guidance to mold their own path towards success. Students are given open-arms access to a vibrant world of music, drama, visual arts, technology, and science with full support to explore their curiosities without judgment or inhibition. These subjects are never considered an “extra”, but an essential part of the school day.

Students are not only exceptionally prepared for their next school, but also for life in a diverse and changing world.
