How We Can Help
Culture of Kindness
and Compassion
We provide space to learn, grow, and thrive
-
Students participate in Restorative Practices to build trust and accountability
-
With a total student body of 90, all staff members know and support the needs of each student
More Than One
Kind of Smart
We recognize and teach based on 8 types of intelligences
-
Instead of a one-size-fits-all system, we discover whether our students are word smart, number smart, picture smart, or any of the eight types of intelligences, then teach to their strengths.
Middle School Years
Made Better
The middle school years can be tough. We make them better by:
-
Building emotional intelligence alongside academics
-
Creating a supportive community environment
-
Helping students discover their strengths during this critical time
"Your child gets the individual attention they need during these crucial middle school years, in a supportive community that celebrates who they are while preparing them for who they're becoming.We're not just teaching subjects—we're developing the whole child."
