Early Childhood Program

Our Early Childhood program focuses on the child within the learner. It's an engaging centers-based curriculum that matches the way children develop and learn, meeting their personal learning needs in a hands-on and nurturing environment. We believe that these early years are crucial for laying the foundation of lifelong learning.

Elementary School

The Elementary program is a unique and premier group of classes that include ages 5-12. During these years, we continue their fundamental education and introduce our students to a variety of experiences that prepares them to thrive as they approach middle school and high school. Our Elementary program is designed to ignite a love of learning that will stay with them throughout their educational journey.

Middle School

Traditional middle school was imagined to create a better force of workers in a growing industrial society. We have held closely to these methods even though our society has evolved. However, your child deserves more. Our Middle School program unlocks the power in them to learn and to enjoy learning, providing a rich and diverse educational experience.
