Our Approach
Our teaching style follows most similarly to the Traditional Public School Approach, however, we believe that the student’s interests are the best place to start when developing a learning plan. We believe children need to be guided in order to grow but do offer some flexibility and choice. We believe that the child should have a well-rounded education that incorporates many different learning opportunities and assessments!
