Our programs take advantage of learning begun in the home by providing appropriate activities that enhance the child's natural development during these years. For example, at age 3, children begin to grasp the concept of sequencing, which is reinforced by our teachers' presentation of materials from left to right, top to bottom, smallest to biggest, concrete to abstract, etc. Teachers are able to encourage each student to excel in our small class sizes. In recent years, classes have gone to Moab, Utah, Washington, D.C. and the Grand Canyon. Set on a beautiful three-acre site with enormous, mature trees, there are five main buildings containing ten separate classrooms, each with its own outdoor garden.
Visitors are welcome, and are required to check in with the school office.
Please call ahead to schedule an appointment so that we may show you the campus and classrooms. Tuition covers most of the basic expenses of operating Jarrow. Additional educational programs and enhancements are made possible only through the generous support of Jarrow's parents and friends. Annual Giving and the Gala Auction provide an important source of revenues for the school, thanks to generous donors. Our goal is to make Jarrow affordable to all qualified families.
