Lower School

(Kindergarten – Grade 6)

Eton’s Elementary School program is designed to meet students where they are and accelerate their progress as quickly as possible at their individual, “just right” levels.  Eton’s highly trained, never-say-never community of educators assess and provide individualized, multisensory instruction that supports academic, social, and emotional growth based on each student’s Personalized Learning Plan.  At the core of our Kindergarten and Elementary School curriculum is Eton’s Essentials of Learning, which provides students with direct and explicit instruction of the foundational skills needed for school and life success. As a part of this, students also receive three hours of daily Literacy/Language Arts instruction. Our approach is designed to engage students, foster confidence, and equip them with essential tools for lifelong learning.

Middle School

(Grade 7 – 8)

Eton’s Middle School program is designed to support students through the complexities of adolescence by fostering confidence, independence, and academic growth through Personalized Learning Plans. We believe in looking at every student as an individual because we know that when educators understand the strength in children’s differences, years of frustration can flourish into years of positive growth.  Our Essentials of Learning curriculum is woven into every class throughout the day, reinforcing critical thinking, communication, and organization. Students develop material and assignment management skills through individual check-ins and goal-setting, planners, and lockers helps them stay organized. Homework is designed to foster independence and reinforce what was learned that day. With multi-sensory instruction and real-life skill development as important elements of the program, our teachers create a safe, supportive environment where students can thrive academically and personally at school and beyond.

Upper School

(Grade 9 – 12)

Eton’s Upper School program is designed to prepare students for life after high school.  Critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership skills serve as anchors to build the knowledge and skills needed for our students to thrive at college, in vocational programs, and eventually as successful professionals and citizens.  Eton fosters a consistent, language-rich learning environment, where writing, reading, and communication skills are reinforced across all subjects. In addition, thematically aligned coursework deepens cultural context and strengthens connections between disciplines. With a wide range of classes and electives, as well as the guidance from our College & Life Prep Office and each student’s Personalized Learning Plan, we strike the right balance between challenge and support, helping students gain confidence and independence while ensuring they have the structure needed for lifelong success.
