School Notes:
- Since 1986, our mission has continued to be that of providing an exceptional educational environment where children are esteemed and encouraged to grow into intelligent, compassionate and responsible human beings. The goal of The Tidewater School is to provide an organized program that enhances learning and movement to develop individual potential. This environment presents multi-sensorial tasks that stimulate the strengths of the child and challenge the weaknesses in other modalities. These concrete and real experiences enhance the building of the foundation that supports the development of abstract thinking skills.
