Who we are

Vision

We are a half day school operating from 9-1pm with a small class size (currently not exceeding 10) to create a close-knit and supportive classroom. We also collaborate with local community organizations to provide additional resources and skills to our students through music therapy, environmental specialists and after school programming.
