    We offer a wide array of educational experiences based on educational best practices to help every child develop academically, as well as socially and emotionally. All students participate in research projects and other reading initiatives designed to enhance their oral and written communication skills. Both individual and group progress is measured throughout the year in order to ensure students are secure in their skills.

A school wide behavior management system offers incentives to individual students and classes. A daily morning assembly introduces, models, and reinforces school wide rituals and routines to develop and enhance the positive learning community.
