Elementary Program

Kindergarten

The Gardner School’s private Kindergarten program, available at select locations, offers a full-day, research-based curriculum designed to provide an academic advantage in a nurturing and engaging environment. With smaller class sizes—one teacher for every 15 students—our program ensures personalized instruction and hands-on learning. Using Open Court Reading, students develop independent reading skills through explicit, systematic instruction, while Math Expressions, based on National Science Foundation research, encourages deeper mathematical thinking and problem-solving. The Learning Without Tears curriculum enhances writing, literacy, and digital skills through multi-sensory techniques, fostering well-rounded academic growth. Kindergarteners explore daily lessons in interactive learning centers, applying concepts through real-world, hands-on activities. Technology is seamlessly integrated into the curriculum with educational games and digital exercises on computers and iPads, preparing students for future academic settings. Parents stay connected through real-time updates, photos, and progress reports via our communication app, KITE binders, and teacher conferences. With a strong focus on foundational skills, responsibility, and individualized support, our Kindergarten program equips students for success in elementary school and beyond.

Interactive Kindergarten

Technology-based kindergarten offers a hands-on and interactive approach to school readiness. Program fosters a child's natural curiosity and encourages exploration. Children enjoy free play and time outdoors each day.

Kindergarten

Kindergarten children have a prospective all their own. Active, inquisitive and eager to learn, they flourish in an environment that lets them learn through exploration and communicate through language, song and rhyme. Scott Foresman-Addison-Wesley Math includes everything to satisfy this unbounded curiosity and energy with a rich range of materials and activities. Children use grouping strategies and patterns to explore numbers to 20. They use handwriting skills to write numbers, sequence, order, or compare groups of objects and numbers to 20. Children use objects to act out joining and separating groups, then write addition and subtraction sentences that show sums and subtraction to and from 10. They'll explore units of measurement, shapes and solids, and the concepts of time and money.

Children's House Kindergarten

Kindergarten in the Montessori Children’s House is a pivotal year where learning comes to life. As the leaders in their mixed-age classroom, children deepen their academic understanding and grow in independence, confidence, and collaboration. With guidance from trained Montessori teachers, students choose their work and engage in hands-on materials across subjects like math, geography, language, and practical life. This final year in the Children’s House nurtures leadership, critical thinking, and a love of learning - laying a strong foundation for the years ahead. Full-Time tuition listed. Part-time and flexible scheduling options are also available. Contact this location for more details.
