Fostering a Dynamic Co-Educational Environment
Our founder’s vision was that children would learn from one another and about one another. Co-education was part of this philosophy. In 1950, she chose to create a co-educational school, and today, we believe that all children benefit.

We believe that students develop confidence and self-esteem with guidance from engaged teachers who know them well, value each child‘s strengths, and reinforce students' belief in themselves.
Co-educational environments mimic what the world looks like. All adults will enter into professional or educational environments at some point or another where they will interact with people of all genders. Having experience with working alongside all types of people as well as knowing what it's like to form relationships with people of all genders strengthens our students ability to empathize and connect with others throughout their lives.
