We provide an enriched and vigorous academic program that caters to the needs of the highly gifted student as well as the student who can benefit from a smaller classroom environment.

Our curriculum encourages the use of higher order thinking from these subject areas: English and Language Arts, Math, Science/Health Science, Social & Cultural Studies, Spanish, Computers, STEM and Physical Education. This includes higher-level textbooks, giving oral presentations, writing book reports, engaging in debates (grades 4 & 5), science experiments and collaborative class assignments.

In the meantime, my child is placed at a table in very back of room in a typical class and treated as a burden by her teacher and staff when I only send her for 30 mins a day. I have asked to just keep her at home and sign her out everyday but the school says I have to send her to her class daily, when she is getting nothing out of it besides her teacher asking multiple times when she will be placed elsewhere like I've enjoyed going back and forth to the school since September and my child still doesn't even get speech regularly when it is on her IEP.
