Kindergarten
5 to 6 year-olds
Kindergarten is a big year for young students—full of personal growth, academic milestones, and self-discovery. They become more engaged in the learning process and develop confidence as they recognize their own abilities.
Ready, Set, Grow!
Kindergarten sets the stage for years of education to come. Students make strides in every subject and are asked to participate in new ways. They share ideas, engage in discussion, and work in groups. In a stimulating, hands-on program, young minds thrive.
Progressive Lessons
Lessons build in complexity, with the flexibility to adapt to students’ individual skills, interests, and needs. Growth is fast and exciting!
Balanced Curriculum
As students begin to read, write, and conquer academic subjects, we also nurture self-expression, creative thinking, and unique interests.
Happy Classrooms
Our teachers create a safe space for every child to ask questions, share ideas, and feel like they belong. Kindness is our culture.
