Our Commitment to Academic Excellence
Learning Tailored to the Individual Child
Our small, child-focused classrooms reach students where they are. With a 7:1 student-teacher ratio, each student gets the personalized help and encouragement he or she needs to thrive.
An Education Based on Exploration
Early exploration is key to developing a thorough understanding of complex subjects. Our approach to learning is hands-on. Students examine ideas and topics up close, pushing beyond rote memorization.
Test Scores to Prove It
Test scores validate our hands-on educational philosophy. Year after year, Community students score among the highest in the nation on standardized tests—averaging 40-42% above national norms, 11% above gifted suburban public students, and 6% above other independent schools.
Success in Secondary School and Beyond
Our graduates emerge well equipped to succeed in the best secondary schools, in college, and in life. Take a look at where our alumni have gone on to attend in the past five years.
