Elementary Program
The Flowering of Vision
Our elementary (K-6) program is where leadership meets academic rigor. We use a multi-age approach to allow older students mentor younger ones, solidifying their roles as leaders.
Los Guías (The Guides): Kindergarten
This transition year focuses on literacy, care of self, personal responsibility, and independence.
Los Forjadores (The Shapers): Grades 1 – 2
These young learners are shaping their world through communication and inquiry. They balance intensive Spanish and English core blocks with ample opportunities to explore STEM areas and leadership development.
Los Visionarios (The Visionaries): Grades 3 – 6
Our older leaders are preparing for global influence. In addition to core content (math, science, English Language Arts, Spanish Language Arts, social studies), they focus on leadership challenges, financial literacy, service learning, and entrepreneurial projects that prepare them for a life of contribution.
