Curriculum Overview

A child’s home is the most effective setting he or she has for learning. In support of this concept, one of our primary goals is to cooperate with parents one-on-one to ensure that we are providing direction and an environment that is effective and unique. Class size is intentionally small and each student is given focused attention from teachers, similar to that of a family dynamic. At the same time, we are dedicated to providing students with the best technological tools available. For example, the school is equipped with several computer labs which the children begin using as soon as they enter Kindergarten. In this way children develop crucial contemporary skills while maintaining a casual comfortable learning environment where they can thrive.

Registration with the State of Illinois certifies that our school year and weekly curriculum time allotments meet with state requirements for mandated courses of study and total number of hours of instruction. The curriculum is fully compliant. In addition, courses are carefully integrated to help children see the interconnections all around us. Routine enrichment (nature walks, theater visits, etc.) help children develop a sense of coherence, order, and meaning in the world beyond the school walls.
