Small Learning Groups
The maximum number of students in a class is 18. Each classroom has one principal teacher, who is assisted by various flex teachers. During a school day, a student may spend individual time with the teacher, work cooperatively in a group of three or four students on a specific skill or project, and participate in a lesson with the entire class.

Arts Integrated Curriculum
Students are instructed in the visual arts, dance and vocal and instrumental music each week by arts specialists who are practicing artists in the community. The arts programs celebrate ethnic and cultural diversity and are coordinated with core classroom instruction.
