Defining the Difference

Class Size

Small class sizes range from 11 to 18.

Nurturing

Social-emotional development is as important as cognitive growth. Teachers cultivate a love of learning.

Co-curriculars

Library, physical education, studio art, and performing arts are weekly pull-out classes with teacher experts.

Mindfulness

Yoga, "super-powers," and belly breaths are all tools of the MBSR teacher, trained to help.
