Concord Hill School, a coeducational school for children ages three through third grade, emphasizes both the academic and the developmental growth of the young child. Focusing on the early childhood years, we emphasize five keys words: knowledge, character, respect, play and community as the essence of a Concord Hill School education. During these important and formative years, Concord Hill demonstrates to its students that acquiring knowledge can be both challenging and fun. We celebrate each child's unique strengths and seek to build self-confidence through achievement. We have one class per grade level with two teachers per class, resulting in an average student-teacher ratio of 6 to 1. Concord Hill instills in its students a strong sense of caring and respect for others. Children experience the responsibilities and benefits of being positive, contributing members of their community and our diverse world.
