Our Mission

This is accomplished with an innovative curriculum that addresses the learning styles of the individual student and is complemented by a real-life experiential learning program within a community that encourages service, leadership, and respect for all.
Our Philosophy

- Nurture the development of a civil community and supportive and safe learning environment through small multi-grade classrooms;
- Maintain low student/teacher ratios by hiring dedicated, talented teachers who provide opportunities for individualized guidance and instruction;
- Cultivate in students the ability to become independent learners, to take risks and to apply academics to their life experiences;
- Produce active, engaged thinkers and communicators who value teamwork and leadership through cooperative and collaborative learning and teaching;
- Support multiple-intelligence learning through project-based and performance-based assessment;
- Encourage parents, students and teachers to serve the school community and beyond;
- Ask students to explore and develop talents and interests outside the classroom;
- Create an environment in which the best education occurs through administrators, parents, staff, teachers and trustees working together to pursue common goals.
