A Deeply Engaged Community
Our community of parents are a frequent presence on campus, immersing themselves in primary classroom readings, appreciating student projects, and participating in events that unify us all. This community spirit is reflected in our students, who form friendships spanning different grades, and feel a sense of belonging that's increasingly elusive in modern times. The bond between the school and its families facilitates the holistic development of every student.
