School Notes:

We are the only school that offers an entire campus for preschool and another for pre-kindergarten with bright classrooms, computer and science labs, indoor heated pools, gyms and playgrounds.
Our Full-Day Kindergarten includes extras most schools do not offer at this level like foreign language, hands-on experiments in our science lab, computer lab, year-round swim lessons and an advanced reading program with proven results. By mid year most children read on their own and by the end of the year can recognize nearly 1,000 words.
We are also opening a School of Performing Arts for students at the elementary and intermediate level. In addition to their academic curriculum, aspiring young actors will take drama, dance and singing lessons needed to put on professional full-scale productions. As part of their program they will go to Broadway plays and take workshops with stars in the shows they see.
