SLIDE 3 What Makes Us Special
Lauren Halstead, Head of School
- Integrative curriculum that encourages creative thinking and is tailored to each student.
- Personalization at every level. Children have the freedom to move ahead in areas they
have mastered, allowing for extra work and enrichment activities in subjects that need more time and attention.
- Accommodation for students of all levels on learning spectrum. Our staff strives to
uncover the unique learning profile of each student and match that knowledge with
- instruction. We introduce new concepts or skills only when children are ready. Our
students learn about English, math, social studies and science through exploration and discovery.
- Focus on experiences, discussion and other activities to help students learn concepts
rather than filling students with pre-digested information
- Gifted Program led by Gifted Endorsed/Certified faculty for parents who seek an
advanced curriculum for their children. Students who are selected for the program become well prepared for Gifted/IB programs at the secondary level.
We teach students how to think, not what to think. By allowing students to discover for themselves, we engage them in becoming independent thinkers.
