• Relationship Building: Have a strong desire to work collaboratively with a talented team of diverse educators and administrators. Develop and maintain interpersonal relationships with the families, students, and school community.

Mission:

We are more than just a school - we are a community! Our goal is to uplift each other, work together, and uphold our guiding educational philosophy, providing the perfect balance of learning and play. We partner with parents by engaging in consistent communication and providing daily snapshots of their child's day, inviting them to be a part of the school experience, as well. We embrace a culture of care - physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually, both in and out of the classroom.
