Our pre-school programs have been designed to develop the imagination through participation in many activities, free of pressure and sustained by the spirit of play.

Children are introduced to poetry, folktales, drama, math, natural sciences, fine arts and Spanish in Preschool. In Kindergarten, in addition to all of the above, students have French class and Social Studies. Children have the opportunity for uninterrupted free play every day.

Our school programs traverse the general content areas with a unique approach at a pace that accompanies the students. Activities are presented as a whole to allow the child's inner expression to flourish in all possible ways.

• Great importance is placed on the “learning process” to develop patterns of learning.
• Experienced Childhood and Elementary Teachers
• Nurturing environment
• Small Class Sizes
• Developmentally appropriate activities
• Hands on material and creative curriculum
