“The teachers really care about each child and do everything they can to encourage and enable each child to succeed.
I’ve really appreciated the academic program, which goes beyond basic subjects and encourages children to learn about and appreciate art, music, dance, theater, etc.
There is a nice variety of after school activities available, which my daughter has really enjoyed and looks forward to every week.“

November 27, 2024My American colleagues have been explaining their ‘Thanksgiving’ holiday traditions to me.

November 8, 2024The other day, I watched my kids discuss building an underground Minecraft bunker, debating the merits of obsidian versus bedrock.
