Our academic goals for our elementary students are to develop a genuine love of learning and to foster a capacity for original thought. The curriculum is exploratory, integrative and challenging. We follow and enhance the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks including English, Mathematics, Social Studies, Science, and a foreign language. In addition, we teach art, music, drama, geography, technology, and physical education. |

| Our elementary program affords the opportunity for substantial flexibility in addressing the individual needs of each student. To enable this, the class sizes are kept small with a maximum of 10 students in a class. Children are grouped according to their age and ability level. An important aspect of the curriculum is the integration of various academic subjects around a particular theme. This instills a strong academic base, a cultural appreciation, and an environmental awareness. The curriculum is enriched by guest speakers and by field trips to the extensive natural and community resources available to us. | |||||
