Academics
Inspiring in Education
Our students achieve through hands-on, cooperative learning with highly individualized instruction. We shepherd our youngest lambs to become enthusiastic, independent learners, while our older students use critical thinking and discovery learning in accordance with our high academic standards.
Our primary grade students receive a firm foundation in Mathematics, Language Arts, and Reading, preparing them for success. While our dedicated teachers encourage and challenge them to consistently work hard and excel.
Our middle school students are encouraged to be innovative thinkers and self-motivated learners. Our teachers design learning programs to increase our student’s skills in problem solving and critical thinking, all while fostering good study habits along the way.
All students K-8 participate in our specials classes every week : Art, Gym, Music, Spanish, and STREAM
