Group Learning Pod
Our Focus
Our secular group learning pod offers a comprehensive educational experience for children aged 5-10. Operating from Tuesday to Thursday, 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM, the program focuses on core subjects, including math, reading, and writing. Children rotate through these classes each day, ensuring balanced academic growth.
A 40-minute lunch and recess period is built into the schedule, giving children the opportunity to socialize and engage in physical activities. Social-emotional learning is also built into our program while implementing the Leader in Me. We focus on the 8 habits of happy and healthy children.
Following a traditional school calendar, our pod operates from September to May, with breaks that align with public schools, making it an ideal fit for families seeking an alternative learning group.
With small class sizes—capped at 10 children per group—learners receive individualized attention based on their academic level and age, ensuring they are challenged and supported in all areas. Our goal is to meet students where they are and help them excel.
