At Stratford School, high expectations yield extraordinary results. Our advanced yet intentionally balanced curriculum starts as early as preschool to inspire and nurture the minds and hearts of every student.
From the outset, we simplify challenging concepts, then accelerate learning to enable our students to study ahead of grade level, develop a love of learning and prepare for the future. Our curriculum is created in thoughtful and meaningful ways to ignite curiosity, nurture exploration and encourage inquiry.
From preschool through 8th grade, Stratford’s curriculum is infused with sequential instruction in science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics — STEAM — to help students develop a diverse set of problem-solving skills and talents they’ll need in today’s world. We accomplish this through a unique cross-disciplinary approach that enhances critical thinking, integrates ideas from multiple subjects and ultimately expands student learning.
Beginning in preschool, Stratford’s curriculum is designed to develop the cognitive, social, emotional and physical building blocks. Hands-on, multisensory activities, including our Imaginative STEAM Play, encourage preschoolers to play and share with others, while developing their self-confidence, so each child discovers the joy and excitement of learning.
In elementary, our accelerated core curriculum exceeds the National Standardized ERB Results and motivates students to become critical thinkers and proficient writers. This balanced approach imparts students with not only a well-rounded education; it fosters the development of strong friendships, effective study skills and blossoming self-confidence.
Middle school continues the Stratford tradition of excellence. We prepare and mentor students for placement in honors and advanced courses at top-tier private and public high schools. Stratford’s intentional approach to educating the whole child results in young adults who are gifted communicators, skilled and generous collaborators and creative problem-solvers.
Our caring and passionate teachers cultivate a fun and nurturing classroom environment, where high expectations encourage students to try new things with confidence and enthusiasm. They present a broad spectrum of learning opportunities. They engage students. They invite questions. They encourage students to collaborate. Consequently, students laugh a lot and learn even more.
By harnessing the collective power of students, teachers and administrators, this carefully designed approach, along with our commitment as educational leaders, helps students to excel. Stratford School prepares students to become the future generation of creative problem-solvers, imaginative innovators, and confident, insightful leaders.
