School Notes
- The Antioch School provides its students with strong academic and social skills. Students are taught the values of trust, sharing and self-esteem through constant reinforcement of positive behavior. By limiting its enrollment and maintaining a low student-teacher ratio in each class, the school provides structured learning with the freedom and creativity of individual attention responding to each child's abilities, needs and interests. As a result, our strong and varied curriculum includes Spanish as a music, art, physical education and after school enrichment programs.
