Our Philosophy to Education
NEW! Learning Through “SENSE”: Our own researched, time tested academic methodology. At its core, Sense is a developmentally balanced teaching method that supports young children's curiosity, socialization and need for physical activity. It is backed by the science of learning and brain development and time tested over 16 years of children who love to learn and to play.
Project-Based Learning: As students grow, we integrate project-based learning to deepen their understanding and application of knowledge. Through hands-on projects, students develop critical thinking, problem-solving and collaboration skills, preparing them for future academic and personal success.
Individualized Education: Every child is unique and our program is tailored to meet the individual needs and interests of each student. We celebrate diversity and encourage self-expression, ensuring that every child feels valued and understood.
More about Elementary School with Kids on 12th
Our Elementary School is dedicated to focusing on the development of foundational skills in essential subjects such as literacy, math, science, and social studies, all through engaging hands-on projects and interactive activities. Students are actively encouraged to ask questions, explore their unique interests, and work collaboratively with their peers in a supportive environment.
While public schools often face challenges in retaining funding for essential gym classes, students at Kids on 12th are on the move every single day. Research shows that movement significantly aids in learning retention, which is why our students receive a balanced mix of structured activities and play throughout their day.
In addition to our core curriculum, we proudly offer a wide variety of enrichment programs, including art, music, and physical education. These enriching programs complement and enhance our core lessons while providing students with valuable opportunities to explore their interests and develop a diverse range of new skills.
Learning at Kids on 12th is thoughtfully supported at each student’s own pace, whether academically, socially-emotionally, or physically. We are committed to helping students expand their knowledge base, develop new skills, and experience learning in ways that resonate with who they are as individuals.
