Our innovative. integrative elementary program is the product of seven years of study and the collaboration of countless creative minds. It reflects our commitment to whole child well-being and student-led inquiry. Due to our desire to provide highly personalized and meaningful experiences, we typically enroll no more than 12 children per class. In addition to an extremely low student to teacher ratio, this creates a sense of fellowship uncommon in traditional schools. Classes combine hands-on learning and community experiences, guided by the Montessori philosophy. We are committed to the philosophy, its principles and advancement of the Method; however, we also believe in a balanced and inclusive approach to education. We tailor our curriculum to meet the needs of diverse families and 21st century children, especially those in our learning community.
