“Hands-on, Minds-on” Curriculum with Frequent Field Trips

Our curriculum is “hands-on, minds-on” and not solely textbook-driven. While an emphasis is placed on STEM, we engage the whole child through the arts, teams, clubs, and community service.

Students enjoy field trips and in-house programs to reinforce materials presented in the classroom.
