Before and after school programs may also be available, plus tutoring and learning study assistance, and a range of activities, languages, humanities and social sciences, mathematics, natural sciences, technology, sports, arts and academic or social clubs.
Whether you’re looking for a Montessori school where creativity and self-expression is important, or a faith-based elementary day school, there are options available where your child can get the benefits of a private school education while remaining close to home.
