A New approach to elementary
In the K-5 classrooms, students are placed in groups that allow them to build the essential elements of modern day learning, this includes reading, writing, math, science, technology, and the arts. Our Team of Teachers will intentionally create environments to foster creativity and communication skills as the student begins to become a lifelong learner.
For a lifelong love of learning
Elementary years are crucial, not only for the rapid and vital learning that happens but also because of the life-long social and emotional patterns that require nurturing to be positively defined.
Through daily morning circles and weekly advisory periods, students in the Elements Program learn tenants of community building and non-violent communication
