  • The Academy is an independent, co-educational school for students in kindergarten through eighth grade. The school offers a structured and accelerated academic program for students who are well motivated and eager to learn.

    While the curriculum is traditional and academic, it is also rich in opportunities for creative experience and expression. It is the school's philosophy that only upon knowledge can creative potential best be realized and self-expression most full developed.

    Class size is limited to around fifteen students, enabling academic cohesiveness while also accommodating individual academic needs. Standards of excellence are fostered in a supportive and nurturing atmosphere that enriches faculty as well as students.. All entering students meet with the Headmaster for an interview and assessment. Admission is based on the interview and letters of recommendation,and,in the case of students entering first grade and above,on transcripts and a standardized entrance examination.
