Elementary Approach
At our elementary school, we engage children's hearts, minds and hands every day. Using an inquiry-based approach, our teachers help students develop critical and creative thinking skills that last a lifetime. In a typical school year, here's how our classrooms are organized:
- Two classrooms in each grade, kindergarten through fifth
- 264 elementary students total
- Two teachers in each classroom
- 22 children in each classroom
- This makes the student-teacher ratio very low at 11:1, allowing the teachers to know each child very well.

Project-Based Learning
Project Based Learning is an immersive process that allows children to explore their natural curiosities and interests freely.
Social Emotional Learning
We believe that the social and emotional aspect of children’s development is as important as the academic component.
Outdoor Experience
On our 18 acre campus, students develop a deep appreciation for the natural world through authentic learning experiences.
Special Trips
Our field trips are carefully chosen to go hand-in-hand with the curriculum, helping connect study with hands-on experiences.
Middle School Bound
Preparation for middle school begins in the early elementary grades as we work to instill a deep love of learning.
I continue to be inspired every day by the parents, the staff, and by the kids in the enthusiasm that they bring to the art of learning.
