We also enjoy an extended Christmas break, allowing families to spend time together and complete work at home. We have a 34-week academic year: August-early December and January-May. This provides ample time for other work, education, travel and hobbies. We employ full-curriculum teachers, individual course teachers, teacher aides, and administrative personnel. Our Lower School meets from 8 am – 2:30 pm, and our Upper School meets from 8:00 am – 2:45 pm.
