Academics

Lower School

Lower School instruction for first through fifth grades builds on the foundations of our Preschool Program. Our hands-on curriculum encourages students to learn by doing, develops strong work habits, and instills personal responsibility. Students are inspired to explore and be inquisitive about the world around them. In addition to our strong academics, physical education, music, drama, art, science, Spanish and technology are all a part of our curriculum. The Lower School also makes use of the community as an extension of the classroom by offering field trips, guest speakers, and providing Arts in the School programs to enhance the curriculum.
