Children should be valued for their uniqueness, ideas, and talents.

Children achieve their highest potential in a challenging academic environment that addresses each child’s social and emotional development.

Children learn in different ways and at different rates.

Children should be active participants in their own learning; we encourage children to explore, experience, and investigate as part of the educational process.

The natural range of abilities and levels of development typical of young children are best accommodated in multi-age groups.

Children learn best in an engaging environment where themes are relevant and meaningful.

Interdisciplinary studies promote a deep understanding of the skills and concepts expected at each grade level.

Children thrive in a rich learning environment that includes visual and performing arts, science, technology, world languages, and physical education.
