What Makes Cobblestone Special?
Unique Curriculum
Our curriculum is the heart of the difference between Cobblestone and other schools. Themes for study integrate reading, writing, math, social studies, scientific inquiry, foreign language and artistic expression that evolve out of children's questions, interests and experiences. This student-responsive, interdisciplinary approach to learning through inquiry, encourages critical thinking and fosters motivation, anchoring learning in a meaningful context.
Focused Attention
A low student to teacher ratio (approximately 8:1) allows our faculty to accommodate students' learning strengths by teaching to multiple learning styles.
Parental Interaction
Cobblestone parents are active partners in their child’s education and they are an integral part of the Cobblestone community.
