Teachers who stay: Our lead teachers have been here for years, and our director teaches in the classrooms every day. That continuity is the thing families tell us they value most.
Small class size: An average of 10 to 12 children, with approximately one teacher for every six, plus an additional teacher on hand.
Enrichment as part of the day: French, yoga, physical education, and music, woven into ordinary mornings and included in every rate.
Outdoors and nature: Daily playground, a mud kitchen, water tables, and a garden the children tend through the year.
A curriculum you can see: Weekly themes, project-based learning, and a lesson plan sent to you each week.
Daily connection: Photos, videos, and messages through Brightwheel.
Meals & Snacks: Meals and snacks served every day.
We have a variety of different programs. We encourage you to call us or come for a tour and we can discuss our options together.
