Lowell is a progressive school of 315 students from age three through Sixth grade. Our philosophy emanates from the work of renowned educators John Dewey, Jean Piaget, Hiam Ginott and current educational research. Our curriculum evolves from an understanding of the stages of cognitive, social/emotional, artistic, and physical development. It promotes active, collaborative learning with an emphasis on analytical thinking and problem solving. Lowell’s mission is to create an inclusive community of life-long learners in which each child is valued and respected.
