Inquiry Based Learning

INQUIRY BASED LEARNING

Inquiry promotes engagement and deeper learning skills like questioning, problem solving, risk-taking, collaboration and communication.  We make learning hands-on, and connected to the world around us.

Diversity and Equity

DIVERSITY AND EQUITY

In diverse learning environments, students perform better, both academically and socially.  We practice equity in all we do, ensuring that students have the support they need to learn.

Multi Age Classrooms

Students stay with the same teacher for two years, building a deep, trusting relationship with their teacher.  Multi age classrooms require a culture of personalized learning.  Social emotional learning is part of the daily curriculum.
