School Notes Overview: |
At our schools, our commitment to low student: teacher ratios allow our teachers to form a relationship with each child and family, to know each child beyond their statistics, and to help each child grow academically, socially and emotionally. We are firmly committed to the belief that parents are the primary influence in a child’s life, and that any quality program, be it at the preschool or middle school level, must actively include and nurture the parent-child-teacher-school relationship. All students have an intrinsic need to be a part of a community in their school setting – a community that is built on the importance of relationships. We are a school where the words “teacher”, “mentor”, and “coach” are the same, where students know the teachers know them, where they are valued and respected, and where they are challenged to excel. ...read more

- Our Kindergarten-Eighth Grade program has always focused on the whole child as an individual with different interests, learning styles, strengths and areas needing improvement. We get to know each child completely and are able to meet the spiritual, educational, social and emotional needs of each child.
With considerable attention to curriculum development, classroom materials and a variety of assessment tools, we are able to meet the needs of all our students. Educationally, we recognize that students work at different paces, on different levels and in different ways. No two children learn in the exact same way! Each child moves through the curriculum scope and sequence continuum, at his/her own pace. Assessment is the key. Careful attention is placed on programs and learning materials to meet a wide range of abilities, starting with the student that may need a little extra support to those working well above grade level. Dialogue across grade levels about the needs of the students is priority. Learning and teaching at our school is far more than following along in a program. It is about developing the program components around the needs of the our children.
