A dedicated and energetic faculty and staff insist on the highest standards of academic performance by each child.

- Our after-school program, including homework, enrichment, and model clubs, as well computer activities for grades 2-5
- A yearly artist-in-residence or whole-school trip to Boston supported entirely by our PTA
