Frequently Asked Questions

  • How many teachers do you have and what are class sizes?
    • We have two teachers per grade, with classes capped at 24 students. Kindergarten has one classroom, capped at 20 students. Additionally, teachers for grades 1–4 loop with their students. This means that if your child has Teacher A in first grade, they will have the same teacher in second grade. In third grade, they get a new teacher who will then loop with the class to fourth grade.
  • Do you offer after-school care?
    • Yes, we partner with the YMCA to provide on-campus after school care until 5:45 pm. A fee applies for this program. To learn more, please visit the YMCA page HERE. 
  • What curriculum do you use?
    • We are a publicly funded school which means we follow the Utah Common Core Standards. To implement these standards we use various curriculum that is focused on hands on learning and problem solving. Some examples of curriculum we use are: CKLA, Illustrative Math, Reading Horizons, Handwriting Without Tears, Lexia, iReady, and Second Steps.
  • How do you handle discipline in your school?
    • Our discipline is rooted in a Love and Logic approach. This means we hold high value in building positive relationships with students first. We are invested in learning about each individual student and valuing what they bring to the school community. Additionally, we believe students learn best when they are given a voice and choice with structured guidance from the adults in the school. Students are encouraged to help problem solve and are given logical consequences when a poor choice is made.
