What we believe

From the Head of School

“We don't ask children to choose between the lab bench and the stage. At this age, they belong in both.”

Mrs. Nicole BaileyMrs. Nicole BaileyHead of School · The Learning Tree

Classes are small enough that every child is known by name. Every one of them passes through all seven subjects, and every one studies at least two languages.

From our families

My daughter started in 3K not speaking a word of English. She graduated eighth grade having edited a film, played cello on a stage, and arguing with me in two languages.
