Lower School 

A Different Design

In the Lower School we build a foundation wide enough to support a lifetime of learning. Unique to our Lower School's design is the emphasis we place on studying the "hows" of teaching and learning. We are committed to using a variety of instructional methods to understand and meet each student's learning needs.

Beginning in TK, students are taught by a collaborative team of grade teachers and specialists. Specialists work with students and teachers at all grade levels in science, Spanish, art, technology, music, media, guidance, physical education, reading, and math. Specialists provide the support and expertise needed for a truly integrated, consistently strong educational experience.

Also critical to our Lower School design is the help of parent volunteers. From classrooms to the science lab, opportunities abound for parents to get involved. Virtues of respect, empathy, and service are taught at each grade level and modeled through the wonderful partnership shared by teachers and parents.
