Lower School
In Lower School, our number one goal is to make each child feel known and loved. Our nurturing and highly dedicated faculty focus on developing every child’s creativity, confidence, social awareness, and independent thinking. Teachers here have homes, not just classrooms, because research shows that children learn best in a stimulating and supportive environment where they feel a strong sense of belonging. Our custom built Learning Villages create a community atmosphere with a family-centered focus that is central to who we are here at All Saints.
We are committed to fostering all aspects of the whole child; therefore, we address the intellectual, social, emotional, and physical growth of each student. One of the ways we do this is by ensuring that the students are active participants in their own learning journey and have a voice throughout their educational experience at All Saints.
Students have the opportunity to learn authentically through real world experiences in each of our innovative learning spaces such as the Oasis, the Explorium and the Learning Farm. We introduce students to the world of entrepreneurship as they create their own brand for egg sales, design and test prototypes in the OASIS, and conduct Science experiments in the Explorium. At All Saints, students in Lower School learn by doing.
At All Saints, our mission is Igniting Passions to Impact our World and in Lower School this begins with encouraging students to explore the concept of self and individualization. As students move through our program we also teach empathy, foster independence, and encourage student agency as they prepare to move to the next level.
By modeling and focusing on our core values of honor, truth, wisdom, faith, family and service in all areas of our campus, we strive to build a foundation for students that will guide them not only through their time at All Saints but throughout their college years and beyond.
Thank you for entrusting your children to us. We promise to serve them well!
All my best,
Dr. Amy Alsip
