Academic Resource

The Academic Resource Center provides students the tools and opportunities they need for academic success. Our learning coaches work with students, teachers, and parents developing instructional strategies to personalize learning.

Project-Based Learning

We believe in a student-centered approach to school in which students learn through the experience of solving a real-world, open-ended problem.

Learning Demands Interactive and Flexible Spaces

While each of our classrooms is outfitted with a variety of seating options and movable furniture to suit the needs our learners, we have also discovered learning is also maximized when students work in a variety of environments and spaces.

The HIVE

Designed to be a creative and collaborative space, the HIVE houses our Maker, Design, & Engineering programs allowing students access to 3D printers, computers, and high-resolution prototyping tools which allow them to explore all aspects of a maker community.

Empathy Influences Learning

Design Thinking

Believing designers change the world, we teach children to observe and question their world, build empathy muscles, experiment with prototypes and iterate. Beyond Lower School, Middle and Upper School students build upon these approaches to learning but on a deeper level.

Servant Leadership

Striving to foster a spirit of service in our students, our grade levels partner with organizations throughout the community to help each child see how he or she can make a difference. Additionally we spend an entire day serving our community in honor of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001 through Helping Hands Day.
