Class sizes are intentionally kept small to support a high-quality learning environment and strong teacher-to-student ratios.

3rd – 4th Grade: Up to 14 students

If enrollment in any class (except K–1st, which requires an aide at 14 students) increases beyond the standard cap, a full-time aide will be added to maintain an approximate 9:1 student-to-teacher ratio.
