Special Events: Students also take part in special events such as class breakfast, guest speakers, parent/child visit, extended family visit, and winter celebration.

Spanish (at an additional cost): Basic topics such as numbers, letters, colors and greetings are among some of the subjects covered during the weekly lessons.

The first duty of an education is to stir up life, but leave it free to develop.
