What Makes us Special?

Personalized Curriculum Design

At the beginning of each year, your child will be given a strengths and learning style assessment, along with academic assessments. This allows us to personalize your child's education, using their strengths as a guide. 

Student-Directed Learning

Students are encouraged to think for themselves and to persue the topics that interest them. Throughout each day, your child will have a healthy balance of teacher-led instruction coupled with student-led exploration using Montessori works.

 

 

 

 

Small Class Sizes

Our classes never exceed 12 students. Your child will receive the attention and personalized support they need to truly thrive.
