A new and innovative K-6 elementary school that maintains an approximate 12:1 student/teacher ratio. We help the children learn to think critically, and outside the box! Our mission is to inspire a true joy in learning, and to create lifelong learners. We don’t teach to the test, but rather utilize authentic assessments. We consider the whole child - mind, body, heart and soul - through unique programs such as individual academic learning plans, daily meditation and yoga, a cutting edge PE program, character development, communication and leadership skill development, and an emphasis on the creative arts as well as academics. Affiliated with Rainbow Kids Integral Preschool (www.RainbowKidsSchool.com).

School Notes:

  • Integral Education unites the modern aim of World Knowledge (traditional academics, etc.), with the ancient aim of Self-Knowledge (understanding one's innate gifts, talents, personality, etc.). With both, one tends to make better choices in life, choices that often lead to greater happiness and success. Our unique program:
  • Inspires the Joy of Inquiry and Exploration
  • Maintains a low student/teacher ration of about 12:1
  • Utilizes innovative Holistic educational approaches
  • Meets and exceeds California State Standards
  • Includes cutting edge Physical Education programs such as Awareness Through the Body (ATB) and Yoga for Children.
