TK/K Classroom

Our TK/K students investigate through hands-on learning in and outside of the classroom. Literature accompanies us on our investigations of; science, history, geography, culture, art, math and more! Our beautiful park-like campus sets the stage for investigative play outdoors.


Grade Pods 1-8

All grade pods will investigate these subjects, at their level, through our class rotation system. We will offer Physical Education, Math, English and Creative Arts on Wednesdays; and Outdoor Activities, Science, History/Literature and Creative Arts on Fridays.
