Our Academics

At Heichaltzu our motto is, "We teach kids not curriculum". Practically, this means we regularly assess each child's individual strengths and weaknesses, growth, and development. We learn which educational approaches work for them, as well as what doesn't. From there we are able to design a tailor made academic plan for each student, helping our each one to grow in the most productive, effective and positive way!

Multi age learning environments create a variety of positive outcomes for students; both socially and academically. They benefit cognitive development, help develop a healthy self esteem, and leadership skills.

Students develop greater maturity and self awareness, and improved academic outcomes. This is true for both younger and students in the class.
