Opening Minds to a World of Opportunities

Our mission is to develop and encourage the personal and intellectual growth of each child entrusted to our care. In the classrooms, on the playing fields, in the science labs and technology centers, that mission comes to life each day for children age 2 through those in the 8th grade.
