Teaching and Learning
Aude Quaerere . Dare to Ask. Our curriculum is rooted in this philosophy. We are a STEAM focused and project-based learning school that specializes in differentiated instruction in small classes. We encourage our students to ask questions, collaborate, explore, and think critically through the creative process to solve real-world problems through authentic projects.
Preschool 2s, 3s, Pre-K & Kindergarten
Our Preschool program is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education and values each child’s individuality within the context of a community.
Arts
In our School's STEAM program, the "A" is for Arts, and is arguably the most significant feature of the program. The importance of Arts can not be overstated, as it provides students a well-rounded education of creativity, innovation, communication, and contemplation, which is in high demand in the modern workforce.
