LOWER SCHOOL Learning happens not only in the four walls of the classroom, but throughout Park’s 34-acre campus. We leverage our resources to provide rich learning experiences, as they cross the campus daily to receive regular instruction from teachers who specialize in art, music, French, physical education, and library. Students will also learn within our greenhouse, field station, open grounds, learning center, and more! All lower school students enjoy daily outdoor recess. Students may begin band instrument lessons in grade 4. Many Lower School students participate in Park’s dramatic productions alongside their Middle and Upper School peers. Students in Grades 1-4 have the opportunity to play on our co-ed 1-2 and 3-4 soccer and basketball teams against other local schools. GRADES K-4 CURRICULUM SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST THE CORE... Park’s Lower School students learn at an early age how to apply problem solving skills in real-world application, think critically through hands-on experiences, and use multiple modalities to explore their interests while learning. Lower School focuses heavily on project-based learning through multiple units of study that incorporate thematic cross-curricular content. Student work is highlighted, shared and celebrated with our entire school community. This is all done following John Dewey’s core principles and beliefs.
