Our private Christian preschool and school in Falls Church serves learners ages 3–13, with older students considered individually. Younger children use Montessori materials to explore practical life, sensory learning and independence. School-age learners work at their own pace on reading, writing and math through the Acton model. Socratic discussions, hands-on quests and exhibitions are part of learning. Older students mentor younger children, develop passion projects and explore apprenticeships. Our guides support learners as they take responsibility for their work and their studio community.
