Our faculty is dedicated to high academic standards and to providing the individual attention that each child needs to fulfill their potential.  We see social and academic skills as inextricably linked, so we strive to create a respectful, safe atmosphere where students can explore personal interests and take responsible risks while developing academic skills and knowledge.

Small class sizes, individual attention, and differentiated instructional strategies ensure that each child has the opportunity to fulfill his or her potential.
