Schola is a micro-school that incorporates the Montessori, Waldorf and Reggio Emilia philosophies, principals, and methodologies to create an innovative and unique learning environment. We believe in the intrinsic abilities and capabilities of children and strive to produce a better and kinder society in which human beings will respect each other and live-in harmony and peace. This vision will only come true if we allow children to experience respect and kindness and find joy in serving other members of society; In Schola our families find a safe place to let their children bloom into the beautiful human beings they are destined to become. Our holistic approach to learning empowers children and encourages them take charge of their own learning experience, in Schola children are encouraged to explore the limits of their curiosity and exploit their interests, transforming curiosity into a genuine hands-on learning experience. We started as a learning pod and we have grown into a successful learning community where staff and families are committed to the nourishment and enrichment of a healthy childhood for our students, providing them the opportunity to explore multiple methods of learning. That said, we are currently on the works to transform Schola into a multilingual micro-preschool, where children are daily immersed in Spanish, English French, and soon to be Mandarin learning environments. We recognize the importance of bringing up emotionally healthy and resilient children, that is why we incorporate socioemotional learning in our daily curriculum ensuring our students are not only academically proficient but also emotionally healthy, kind, respectful and joyful human beings.
