What our organization offers: 
Atrium School’s joyful community honors and empowers each learner’s innate excellence. Through explorations of complex problems and the celebration of wonder, our PreK – Grade 8 students grow a sense of self rooted in curiosity and the continual pursuit of learning. Students are challenged to deepen their confidence, discover passions, and demonstrate integrity within and beyond the school.

At Atrium, an emphasis on collaborative, balanced, hands-on curriculum enables students from elementary to middle school to gain and exercise critical thinking and problem-solving skills across multiple curricular areas. Students develop strategies that nourish their intellectual, emotional, social, and physical self-confidence and growth. In all of their interactions and studies, Atrium students are given time to question, explore, experiment, and reflect both independently and cooperatively.

We encourage children to build on their distinct experiences. Each child engages in a process of discovery that recognizes and references his or her uniqueness within a community of learners. This process fosters responsibility for one’s own development, promotes self-knowledge and a sense of independence and self-reliance within the context of a group.
