Academic instruction includes small-group sessions that allow teachers to create a personalized learning experience for each student as they explore the concepts of language arts, math, science, and social studies. Students also receive instruction in art, physical education, and music as part of our commitment to educating the whole child.

We believe in a holistic approach to education, which helps foster academic excellence, critical thinking, and a lifelong passion for knowledge.
