Unlike most schools, we allow parents to choose when their child comes to school, regardless of their age, until the start of Kindergarten. While most choose a Monday / Wednesday / Friday pattern, or all five days, parents may opt for a staggered schedule to match their employment hours. For example, a child might come on Tuesday and Wednesday morning and Friday afternoon. Or another might come five mornings a week and two afternoons, giving that child two full days in addition to mornings. The minimum for half-days is three per week.

Our sessions are three hours long, rather than the two and a half hours that most schools offer.

While other preschools offer Spanish "lessons" at certain times during the week, and there is one Spanish immersion elementary school, we are currently the only preschool with a foreign language immersion program.

We have acquired many Montessori materials and incorporated certain Montessori principles into our program. 

Our student-teacher ratios in First and Second grades are 1:8, in Kindergarten are 1:12, and in Preschool are 1:7. We occasionally have a student-teacher sent to us, which lowers the ratio even further.

Because learning doesn't just occur in the classroom, our upper grades engage in 10-12 field trips and community service projects throughout the year. These field trips are incorporated into our lesson plans and each student's year-long journal project
