Celebrating childhood,

preparing for the future

Our Purpose

Learning at The Long Ridge School is an active and joyful experience. Children should be active participants in their own learning; we encourage children to explore, experience, and investigate as part of the educational process.

 

The Long Ridge School is a diverse community of learners where children are respected as individuals with innate curiosity. We believe children flourish in a small, caring, and academically challenging environment where learning is an active and joyful experience.

 

Our educational experience that we provide to our students is rooted in a comfortable and respectful environment, that still challenges the minds for the age groups of our classes. We believe that finding early childhood education for your children is one of the most important and valuable things you can provide for your children, as the early years is where much of the socialization and lessons that translate throughout the years occur.

 

We help children develop the skills, motivation, and values to become successful students, responsible people, and lifelong learners.
