Our school's goal is: To enrich and celebrate the unique talents of each student. We offer a full day kindergarten program designed to help children enhance social growth while exploring literature, mathematics, and our community. In the primary grades, these types of opportunities continue, gaining depth with each year. In the upper grades, children explore a variety of literature , gain in-depth knowledge about many scientific topics, and math skills that are in-line with state standards and assessments.
