tiny wonders

infant care

begin the journey of a lifetime

We believe the early years of childhood can be the beginning of a wonderful learning journey full of enjoyment, beauty, wonder and wisdom. Infants and toddlers are beginning to explore the world around them cognitively and physically––when they are offered a loving community and thoughtful guidance, they will build an educational foundation that lasts a lifetime.

At this level, infants and toddlers rely on adults to meet most of their needs while also learning through their own experiences. The teachers are here to guide and support while providing a safe and emotionally supportive environment for them.

wisdom begins with wonder

We believe the early years of childhood can be the beginning of a wonderful learning journey. Which is why we decided to extend our educational model to started the first ever classical preschool program.

Preschoolers are ripe and ready to explore the world around them, and when they are offered a loving community and thoughtful guidance, they can build an educational foundation that lasts a lifetime. They bring a level of intensity and enthusiasm to their investigations––building on these natural strengths, we partner with families to provide a rich and meaningful educational experience.

Classical education with a twist

We offer a distinctive learning community that brings students, parents and teachers together for an unrivaled education that is wonderfully rich, rewarding, effective and meaningful. We engage the minds and hearts of children to protect the natural love of learning and help each child reach his or her full potential.

Infused with the great stories of time, engaging literature, mathematical thinking, and hands-on science, classical education allows students to enjoy their educational journey and uniquely prepares them to face the future as leaders and thoughtful, responsible adults.

Joining the great conversation

Our high school’s unparalleled learning environment crafts a different type of student––one who is knowledgeable and thinks critically with the ability to discern, analyze, problem solve, and effectively communicate his or her own opinions. SLOCAHS students are not only well prepared to succeed in college, but are also imbued with the increasingly rare skills and habits required to become leaders and lifelong learners––living fulfilling, valuable and useful lives.
