We pride ourselves on being a green school that is solar powered and always environmentally conscious. We work just as hard on building quality character in our students as we do in building academic skills. Three crucial attributes embody the types of students and staff members we have at our school - passionate about learning, dedicated to service and of the highest integrity/character. All stakeholders (parents, teachers, administrators, board members) at our school have one thing in common - we put learning first. Our tri-accreditation of Association Montessori International (AMI), International Baccalaureate (IB) and Middle States Association (MSA) leads our students to dual high school diplomas after experiencing a detailed academic continuum that focuses on the acquisition of strong academic skills. We have a Spanish Infusion program, as well as focus on Mathematics and Science.
