College Preparatory School for Girls Grades 3-12

Lower School: Grades 3-6

BUILDING A LASTING FOUNDATION

Supported by a sense of safety, deep connection to their teachers, and respectful friendships with classmates, Lower School girls spend their days in an environment of joyful learning.

Their teachers are experienced, innovative, creative, passionate, and deeply nurturing educators. Beyond helping students master subject matter, they invest in helping girls understand and identify their own emotions, setting the stage for productive discovery.

Each day begins with a morning meeting during which all students and teachers come together to share. This open exchange creates a sense of belonging, significance, and fun—all of which inspire and deepen student engagement.

From third grade on, girls dive into design thinking and global engagement, whether using 3D printers to bring their ideas to life or partnering with classrooms across the globe.

Our students learn with purpose and intention—as teachers help them understand the deeper meaning and larger contexts behind their lessons and experiences.

Here, girls are free to be themselves while learning how to understand, value, and work closely with others.

They leave for Middle School knowing who they are, what they value, and how to move toward accomplishing their ambitions and dreams.
