Today’s world requires more of our children.

Success in this fast-paced world requires being able to quickly navigate close real-world relationships with colleagues of all ages, solve complex cross-curricular problems, and speak up for one’s self when the time is right.

Right-sized, close-knit educational environments offer fertile ground for joyful exploration, and a safe platform from which to discover new passions. There’s a reason why small schools are thriving!

For Pupils, Not For Profit

Look for a school that’s registered as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, which means they use every cent of their budget on school programs - not to enrich outside investors or please some political agenda.

When the entire staff can focus on the children, the difference is palpable.
