The Rest of the Curriculum

Beyond the focus on competence in basics, Lower School students are introduced to a wide variety of academic subjects. Designed with an integrated approach, the Lower School curriculum addresses basic concepts in geography, history, science, music, art, poetry, foreign language (Spanish), and a wide range of “life skills”—communication, manners, morals, manual dexterity, and basic concepts of logic and reason. In addition, our teaching methods engage students in creative activities which encourage the exploration of their surroundings and help them relate what they learn to real life.
