What a fun night! Elementary had an evening outing at school for community building. They enjoyed building forts, making slime, having a talent show, eating pizza and most importantly- making s’mores for the movie party;)

Children express feelings and emotions in so many ways, so much so that one lucky Dad was tagged on the basketball court.

And we’re off! Exploring and creating the Solar System.

All the hidden gems left by our students that we discover and adore around campus;)

Meet Lilly & Blair. Two strong, loving, and free-spirited girls who share a similar journey with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP). Blair attended our school every day with a smile, determination and hard work. We miss her amazing personality and friendship so much, but she when she visits us every so often to pick up her sister from school, she brightens our day and fills our heart. We support their foundation, their ongoing perseverance and encourage others to share their story. To learn more about Libby and Blair visit:

What an experience for our students to meet alumni and Miss Virginia Victoria Chuah. Victoria read stories in classrooms and talked to Elementary students about healthy lifestyles. She also shared many fond memories in our school especially about art with Mike Brown, now our Sterling Head of School.

We love water works and getting a little messy! Table washing is a BIG work from beginning to end and offers children many opportunities for mastering self care and care for the environment.
