We are 1 of 15 National Affiliate schools accepted as part of the prestigious Columbia University/Teacher’s College Reading and Writing Project.

Daily 1:10 ratio with fully credentialed Literacy Excellence teachers in grades K-4.
Two dedicated Literacy Coaches 0ne for K-4 and one for 5-8 to work cooperatively with classroom teachers and students.
