From the foundation of Quaker values, we embrace diversity and equality to provide a positive, healthy and immersive learning experience.

HOLISTIC APPROACH
We take a very holistic approach to education (Lifeskills, behavioral pieces). We do not use letter grades (except for advanced placement classes) and do not participate in standardized testing.
INDIVIDUALIZED ATTENTION
Small class sizes; with individualized attention, detailed evaluations and customized education. Our students have gone on to be Valedictorian at Richmond High School 10 times in the past 16 years.
TECHNOLOGY
Technology is used as an enriching practice, with 1:1 laptops for 5 th -8 th grade; 1:2 for 3 rd - 4 th grades and 5 laptops per classroom in younger grades.
SECURITY AND WELLNESS
We have secured access to enter buildings. We use conflict resolution with bullying and empower students to make better choices to provide a safe environment.
