Stuart School of Santa Rosa is a non-profit school which is privately owned and accredited by national and state standards.
We provide appropriately individualized instruction and personal attention, which recognizes differences in ability.
The program at Stuart School allows children to work well above grade level and/or receive the extra help needed in any subject area to guarantee academic success.
Thus, your student who may have exceeded accomplishments of their age peers will be challenged, rather than shackled below their abilities.
As good self-esteem is based on doing well, this freedom for academic success ensures a child feeling good about himself and develops a love of learning.
