Back-to-School

We're on the path to Back-to-School. . . See our students hang up their Geneva totes, make new friends, and tread this path along our International Garden. We're on the trail to a lifelong love of learning!

Summer Camp

Sports, water play, cooking, gardening, arts and crafts and more! Camp sessions, shaped by children's interests, brought us to explore our invigorating playground, verdant gardens, and nearby creek.
