Our Goals:

  1. We believe in providing each child the enriched and accelerated learning needed to reach a high level of academic excellence. This includes the development of independence, creativity, and motivation to learn and achieve within a well-structured, but low-pressure environment. Our curriculum provides each child with knowledge and opportunities to practice decision-making.

  2. We believe in establishing positive, effective communication and interpersonal relationship skills. This can be facilitated in a carefully planned learning environment which is based on respect for each child as an individual, and a philosophy which practices positive support, individualization of each child's program and faculty who are genuinely committed to the development of each child as a whole person.

  3. We help each student establish a good self-concept, awareness and understanding of the world and of people, compassion, and a sense of pleasure and delight in learning, and in participating in the life present in our ever-changing world. It is our philosophy that children will be successful, and appreciate the natural and aesthetic qualities of the world in which we live.

Faculty

We are proud of our exceptional faculty. Our teachers are licensed and experienced, caring, supportive, and dedicated. They foster joyful learning, which is so essential to our learning environment. The faculty is committed to the development of the "total child" and exhibit an unusually high degree of professionalism and creativity. Many of them have advanced degrees, and many, varied areas of expertise.

Excellence is demanded of our teachers in order to promote excellence in the children. Because each teacher creates the emotional climate in the classroom and strives to provide motivation for learning, children's needs are met with success. Carefully crafted lessons and experiences provide the best possible education for each child. The children, faculty, and parents work together as a team to provide a most unique learning experience and to ensure the development of the total child.

A place children love, a place children learn.   .   .
